Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hearing aid with a Storage device, stored in the data readable are. Moreover, the present invention relates to a corresponding method for adjusting a hearing aid for a Hearing aid users.
  • a hearing aid is basically to the hearing aid wearer respectively individually adapt. It uses certain Preferences. These presets, for example in the form of value tables, created for a device type are stored in the hearing aid. Starting from these stored values can now be the fine adjustment of the hearing aid be carried out more quickly.
  • Some hearing aids have the type-specific frequency response data but only very rough clues. This is special in the case of IDO hearing aids, where the sound tubes in the hearing aids due to the individual designs the earmolds always have different lengths, even if they are the same type of hearing aid.
  • a programmable hearing device in the hearing aid characteristics can be stored. For this is to provide a corresponding memory in the hearing aid, the can be read out if necessary.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to to improve the customization of individual hearing aids.
  • a hearing aid with a Storage device in which data is stored in readable form are, wherein the stored data frequency response data via the frequency response measured individually for the present hearing aid include.
  • the invention provides a method for adapting a hearing aid for a hearing aid wearer Read out frequency response data about the individual for the present hearing aid measured frequency response from a memory of the hearing aid and adjusting the hearing aid using the individual frequency response data.
  • the advantage of the invention is thus that of each individual frequency response from the hearing aid directly can be read out, so that an adjustment is carried out more quickly can be.
  • the frequency response is measured in situ, so that the frequency response data indirect information about the ear canal of the hearing aid wearer.
  • the frequency response is below Consideration of the specific acoustic conditions in the Ear canal of the wearer already detected and stored in the hearing aid is, so that readjustments can be made faster.
  • the frequency response should be at least in the range of 100 Hz be stored to 10 kHz. This is the one for hearing aids usual frequency range covered.
  • the frequency response with 10 to 200 samples stored. This number of samples is sufficient to the individual frequency response To be able to grasp circumstances accordingly.
  • the frequency response data should also be standardized Format saved. This ensures that the hearing aids are read out with different software can.
  • the frequency response of a hearing aid is typically in the range from 100 Hz to 10 kHz, as in the example of FIG. 1 is shown.
  • the frequency response varies in Dependent on the length of the sound tube between the Handset and the IdO hearing aid output.
  • the length of the sound tube depends directly on the shape of the earmold.
  • the sound tube lengths call for different resonances what is reflected in the frequency response. So finds For example, in the case of the measured in Figure 1 hearing aid the maximum gain at a sound tube length of 17 mm near about 2400 Hz, while the maximum gain at a sound tube length of 3 mm in the vicinity of 3000 Hz.
  • the level difference is between the two hearing aids with 17 mm and 3 mm Hose length at 4.3 kHz about 11 dB. This significant level difference goes without saying in the adaptation clearly noticeable.
  • the individual Frequency response of a hearing aid is stored in this.
  • an IdO hearing aid HG inserted in an ear canal OK.
  • the End of a measuring tube M or a microphone is located in the space between the eardrum TF and the hearing aid HG, so that the output sound level of the hearing aid HG in the individual shaped ear canal can be measured.
  • the hearing aid HG is used to record the frequency response of a meter MG controlled via a control line SL.
  • the individual frequency response through the meter MG is the frequency response to a memory S of the hearing aid HG stored. From this memory S is the frequency response at any time for example, for a new setting of the hearing aid HG transferable to the programmer of an acoustician.
  • the Memory S in the hearing aid HG is for example in the form of a EEPROM realized.
  • the acousticians or customers need for the adaptation of a Hearing aid only the software for the programming interface.
  • current Frequency response data and updates of this data must by the solution according to the invention not to the acousticians and Customers are distributed. Rather, the frequency-specific Hearing aid curves for each hearing aid directly in the stored respective hearing aid. This means that at different Hearing aid types or versions, but also at Changes in the parameters on the hearing aid the programming software can remain unchanged. An appropriate software distribution action to the relevant users can therefore remain under. In particular, older software can also be used for newer ones Hearing aids are used.
