Definitions

  • the frame is designed to hold all internal components.
  • This frame primitive which together with the internal components is referred to as the base structure or base device, is colorless.
  • the shells or the battery compartment are attached to the frame, for example by pins.
  • the neutral base unit also leads logistically to simplification, since trays or battery compartments can be combined with less frequently required colors only on customer request. Even the acoustician can put together different color combinations on customer request. A full functional test is then no longer necessary.
  • FIG. 1 shows the structure of an exemplary frame consisting of a bottom frame GR and a top frame DR.
  • the base frame is designed so that it can hold all internal components (eg program switch, microphone, etc.).
  • the lid frame is formed so that it is connectable by pins to the base frame and after joining together with the base frame forms a stable frame over which the shells or the battery compartment are fastened by pins.
  • FIG. 2 shows an exemplary hearing aid comprising a frame FR, an upper shell OS, a lower shell US and a battery compartment BF.
  • the base frame GR is already connected to the lid frame DR.
  • FIG. 3 shows an orthogonal or rectangular division of the frame with respect to the shell.
  • the upper or lower shell is opened vertically, the basic or lid frame horizontally. Due to the mentioned pitch frame and housing brace very well, whereby housing vibrations are minimized.

Abstract

Der Umbau eines Hörgeräts durch den gemeinen Akustiker war bisher nicht möglich.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist für das Hörgerät ein Rahmen vorgesehen, der so konstruiert ist, dass er alle internen Komponenten hält. Die Schalen bzw. das Batteriefach werden an dem Rahmen befestigt.

Description

    Problem, das der Erfindung zugrunde liegt
  • Da die elektronischen bzw. elektromechanischen Komponenten in den Schalen gehalten wurden, ist der Umbau relativ zeitaufwendig und kann nur durch fachlich geschultes Personal durchgeführt werden. Eine Prüfung der Funktionalität bzw. Stabilität (Akustik) war in jedem Falle notwendig.
  • Bisherige Lösung des Problems
  • Der Umbau eines Hörgeräts durch den gemeinen Akustiker war bisher nicht möglich. Nur wenige Unternehmens-Ketten konnten diesen Umbau vornehmen.
  • Lösung des Problems gemäß der Erfindung
  • Gemäß der Erfindung wird der Rahmen so konstruiert, dass er alle internen Komponenten hält. Diese Rahmen-Grundstruktur, die zusammen mit den internen Komponenten als Basisstruktur oder Basisgerät bezeichnet wird, ist farbneutral. Die Schalen bzw. das Batteriefach werden an dem Rahmen befestigt, z.B. durch Stifte.
    Neben der verbesserten Umbaufähigkeit des Hörgeräts führt das neutrale Basisgerät auch logistisch zur Vereinfachung, da Schalen bzw. Batteriefächer mit weniger oft benötigten Farben erst auf Kundenwunsch kombiniert werden können. Selbst der Akustiker kann auf Kundenwunsch verschiedene Farbkombinationen zusammenstellen. Eine volle Funktionsprüfung ist daraufhin nicht mehr nötig.
  • Im folgenden wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung, die drei Figuren umfasst, näher erläutert.
  • Figur 1 zeigt die Struktur eines beispielhaften Rahmens, die aus einem Grundrahmen GR (Bottom Frame) und einem Deckel-Rahmen DR (Top Frame) besteht. Der Grundrahmen ist so ausgebildet, dass er alle internen Komponenten (z.B. Programmschalter, Mikrofon, usw.) halten kann.
    Der Deckel-Rahmen ist so ausgebildet, dass er durch Stifte mit dem Grundrahmen verbindbar ist und nach dem Verbinden zusammen mit den Grundrahmen einen stabilen Rahmen bildet, über dem die Schalen bzw. das Batteriefach durch Stifte befestigt werden.
  • Figur 2 zeigt ein beispielhaftes Hörgerät, das einen Rahmen FR, eine Oberschale OS, eine Unterschale US und ein Batteriefach BF umfasst. Bei dem dargestellten Rahmen FR ist der Grundrahmen GR bereits mit dem Deckel-Rahmen DR verbunden.
  • Figur 3 zeigt eine orthogonale bzw. rechtwinklige Teilung des Rahmens gegenüber der Schale. Die Ober- bzw. Unterschale wird vertikal geöffnet, der Grund- bzw. Deckel-Rahmen horizontal. Durch die genannte Teilung verspannen sich Rahmen und Gehäuse sehr gut, wodurch Gehäusevibrationen minimiert werden.

Claims (3)

  1. Hörgerät, mit
    a) einem Rahmen, durch den alle internen Komponenten gehalten werden,
    b) einer Schale, die an dem Rahmen befestigt wird.
  2. Hörgerät nach Anspruch 1,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass
    der Rahmen gegenüber der Schale rechtwinklig geteilt ist.
  3. Hörgerät nach Anspruch 1 oder 2,
    dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass
    die Schale bzw. das Batteriefach an dem Rahmen durch Stifte befestigt sind.
