Abstract

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Schallübertragungsvorrichtung (104), welche eine äußere Komponente (107) und eine innere Komponente (110) umfasst, wobei die äußere Komponente (107) die innere Komponente (110) wenigstens bereichsweise umgibt, und wobei wenigstens die innere Komponente (110) eine Durchgangsöffnung (111) aufweist; weiterhin umfasst die Schallübertragungsvorrichtung eine folienartige Komponente (120), welche die Durchgangsöffnung (111) der inneren Komponente (110) auf einer Seite verschließt. Dabei sind die äußere und die innere Komponente (107, 110) mittels eines Mehrkomponenten-Spritzgießverfahren in einem Arbeitsschritt einstückig miteinander verbunden.

The present invention relates to a sound transmission device (104) comprising an outer component (107) and an inner component (110), wherein the outer component (107) at least partially surrounds the inner component (110), and wherein at least the inner component (110) 110) has a passage opening (111); Furthermore, the sound transmission device comprises a film-like component (120), which closes the passage opening (111) of the inner component (110) on one side. In this case, the outer and inner components (107, 110) are integrally connected to one another in one work step by means of a multi-component injection molding process.
