Abstract

Bei einem Hörgerät mit einem Ohrpassstück (20; 30) ist ein Schallaustritt (18) für den verstärkten Schall vorgesehen. Zur Vermeidung eines Okklusionseffekts weist das Ohrpassstück ein Venting (36; 38) auf. Das Venting ist mit einem frequenzabhängigen Schalldämpfungselement (50; 60, 70; 80; 90; 100) versehen, derart dass eine Rückkopplung von höherfrequentem Schall vermieden wird.

Figure 00000001
In the case of a hearing aid with an ear mold (20; 30), a sound outlet (18) is provided for the amplified sound. To avoid an occlusion effect, the earmold has a venting (36; 38). The venting is provided with a frequency-dependent sound attenuation element (50; 60, 70; 80; 90; 100), so that feedback of higher-frequency sound is avoided.
