Abstract

Ein Batteriefach einer Hörvorrichtung soll besser gegen ungewolltes Öffnen geschützt werden. Daher wird ein Gehäuse für eine Hörvorrichtung mit einem Batteriefach (10), das an dem Gehäuse (60) gelagert und in eine Offenposition sowie eine Geschlossenposition bewegbar ist, einem Vorsprung (50), der fest an dem Gehäuse (60) angebracht ist, und einem Sicherungselement (20) zum Verhindern einer Bewegung des Batteriefachs (10) vorgesehen. Das Sicherungselement (20) ist an dem Batteriefach (10) gelagert und zwischen einer Gesichertposition und einer Entsichertposition schwenkbar. Ferner hintergreift das Sicherungselement (20) den Vorsprung (50) in der Gesichertposition und der Geschlossenposition des Batteriefachs (10) so, dass das Batteriefach (10) nicht in die Offenposition bewegbar ist. Schließlich besitzt das Sicherungselement eine Tasche, in die in der Gesichertposition mit einem Werkzeug zum Bewegen des Sicherungselements (20) in die Entsichertposition greifbar ist.

Figure imgaf001
A battery compartment of a hearing device should be better protected against accidental opening. Therefore, a housing for a hearing device with a battery compartment (10) which is mounted on the housing (60) and movable to an open position and a closed position, a projection (50) which is fixedly attached to the housing (60), and a fuse element (20) for preventing movement of the battery compartment (10) is provided. The securing element (20) is mounted on the battery compartment (10) and can be pivoted between a secured position and an unlocked position. Further, the securing element (20) engages behind the projection (50) in the secured position and the closed position of the battery compartment (10) so that the battery compartment (10) is not movable into the open position. Finally, the securing element has a pocket, into which in the secured position with a tool for moving the securing element (20) into the armed position can be grasped.
