Abstract

Hörvorrichtungen und insbesondere Hörgeräte sollen kleiner gestaltet werden. Hierzu wird eine Montagevorrichtung zum Befestigen einer Komponente (18) im Gehäuse (19) einer Hörvorrichtung mit einem ersten Arm (11) zum Halten der Komponente (18) und einem zweiten Arm (12), der zumindest teilweise in/an ein entsprechendes Befestigungselement (22) an der Innenseite des Gehäuses (19) steckbar ist, vorgesehen. Ein Scharnier verbindet die beiden Arme (11, 12) schwenkbar. Nach dem Verbinden der Montagevorrichtung (10) mit dem Befestigungselement (22) werden die beiden Arme (11, 12) durch Schwenken um das Scharnier aneinander geschnappt und nehmen so eine Montageendposition ein. Durch diesen Klappmechanismus lässt sich auch der Raum unter einem Deckabschnitt des Gehäuses (19) ausnutzen.

Figure imgaf001
Hearing devices and in particular hearing aids should be made smaller. For this purpose, a mounting device for fastening a component (18) in the housing (19) of a hearing device with a first arm (11) for holding the component (18) and a second arm (12), at least partially in / on a corresponding fastener ( 22) on the inside of the housing (19) can be plugged provided. A hinge connects the two arms (11, 12) pivotally. After connecting the mounting device (10) to the fastening element (22), the two arms (11, 12) are snapped together by pivoting about the hinge and thus assume a final assembly position. By this folding mechanism, the space under a cover portion of the housing (19) can be exploited.
