Definitions

  • a hearing aid is used to supply a hearing-impaired person with acoustic ambient signals, which are processed according to a compensation of the respective hearing impairment and in particular amplified.
  • a hearing device for this purpose usually comprises an input transducer, usually in the form of a microphone, a signal processing unit with an amplifier, and an output transducer.
  • the output transducer is usually implemented as a miniature speaker and is also referred to as a handset or receiver. It generates for the hearing aid wearer the acoustic output signals.
  • ITE hearing aids in-the-ear, also IdO or in-the-ear
  • a housing which contains all the functional components, including the microphone and the receiver, is carried at least partially in the auditory canal.
  • CIC Completely-in-Canal
  • BTE hearing aids wear a housing with components such as a battery and the signal processing unit behind the ear.
  • a flexible, also referred to as "tube” sound tube directs the acoustic output signals of the receiver from the housing to the ear canal.
  • Some hearing aids are additionally equipped with so-called coil antennas.
  • Such coil antennas are referred to in the field of hearing aid technology as telecoils or telecoils. They are usually in the form of a formed with wire, in particular ferromagnetic, core formed.
  • a coil antenna or telecoil is used for the inductive transmission of information signals to a hearing aid and thus enables the wireless reception of electromagnetic signals in a near field, which are emitted for example by induction loops in lecture or lecture rooms, churches or museums to inform the hearing aid wearer.
  • a coil antenna also enables the direct wireless coupling of audio signals transmitted to an electromagnetic loudspeaker, eg in a telephone, without a detour via sound signals.
  • a coil antenna is usually mounted on the printed circuit board within the housing of a hearing aid and requires space on the printed circuit board and in the housing.
  • both the structure of the housing and the printed circuit board differs.
  • sufficient space for the coil antenna in the housing and on the printed circuit board must always be considered when constructing different types of hearing aids.
  • the array of other electronic components resident on the printed circuit board such as e.g. the signal processing elements to be adjusted. Accordingly, the design costs, but also the production costs, apart from the additional installation of the coil antenna, by a non-optimized arrangement of the electronic and electrical components, undesirably high.
  • a hearing aid comprising a housing, and arranged on the housing switch module, wherein the switch module comprises an externally operable, movable switching element for changing settings of the hearing aid, wherein the switching element can also function as a coil antenna for the inductive transmission of information signals to the hearing aid ,
  • a hearing aid comprising a housing, and arranged on the housing switch module, wherein the switch module comprises an externally operable, movable switching element.
  • a first object of the invention is to provide a hearing aid, which allows the use of a coil antenna in a hearing aid with respect to the prior art lower manufacturing costs and manufacturing costs.
  • the first object of the invention is achieved by a hearing aid, comprising a housing, and arranged on the housing switch module, wherein the switch module comprises an externally operable, movable switching element for changing settings of the hearing aid, characterized in that a coil antenna for inductive Transmission of information signals is inserted on the hearing aid in a cavity of the switching element.
  • the invention initially starts from the consideration that not every hearing aid wearer would like to use a hearing aid with a coil antenna. Rather, according to the current state, the vast majority of hearing aids without coil antenna manufactured and delivered. For example, in BTE hearing aids currently only about 10% of the manufactured hearing aids are equipped with a coil antenna. In hearing aids with a coil antenna used their function is partially switched off when not in use by the hearing aid wearer by the hearing aid acoustician by means of an appropriate software.
  • the invention now overcomes this problem in a second step by providing an arrangement of the coil antenna which differs from conventional hearing aids.
  • the invention uses an already necessary switch module of a hearing aid, which comprises an externally operable, movable switching element for changing settings of the hearing aid.
  • the switching element typically has a cavity into which the coil antenna is inserted.
  • the coil antenna thus becomes part of a switching element which is present in many hearing aid types, in particular in a BTE hearing aid, and offers sufficient space for accommodating a coil antenna.
  • the invention is not limited to a BTE hearing aid.
  • the space for the coil antenna now no longer needs to be provided on the printed circuit board or in the housing of the hearing aid, the construction of new hearing aid types is simplified.
  • the arrangement of the components and the shape of the housing can be optimized, detached from housing the coil antenna, for example, in terms of manufacturing costs, the manufacturing process or functionality.
  • a simple production of the hearing aid with and without coil antenna is possible by the arrangement of the coil antenna in the switching element.
  • only a switching element with or a switching element without coil antenna used is mounted on the hearing aid. By replacing the switching element in a hearing aid, a coil antenna can even be subsequently integrated into the hearing aid or a switching element with coil antenna can be exchanged for such without a coil antenna.
