Abstract

Ein Verbindungsmodul (20) für ein modulares Hörhilfsgerät umfasst eine Schnittstelle (24) zum mechanischen sowie elektrischen oder akustischen Koppeln des Verbindungsmoduls (20) mit einem Hauptmodul, das zur Erzeugung elektrischer oder akustischer Signale ausgebildet ist. Ferner umfasst das Verbindungsmodul eine Leitung (40) zum Leiten eines akustischen oder elektrischen Signals zu einem Ohrstück, das zum zumindest teilweisen Einführen in einen Gehörgang eines Patienten ausgebildet ist. Eine Anpasseinrichtung (32) ist zum Anpassen der Länge eines aus dem Verbindungsmodul (20) ragenden Teils der Leitung (40) ausgebildet.

A connection module (20) for a modular hearing aid device comprises an interface (24) for mechanically and electrically or acoustically coupling the connection module (20) to a main module which is designed to generate electrical or acoustic signals. Furthermore, the connection module comprises a line (40) for conducting an acoustic or electrical signal to an earpiece, which is designed for at least partial insertion into an auditory canal of a patient. A matching device (32) is designed to adapt the length of a part of the line (40) projecting from the connecting module (20).
