Description

本発明は、ケース本体、フック、チューブや耳せんなどからなる耳かけ型補聴器に関する。   The present invention relates to a behind-the-ear hearing aid comprising a case body, a hook, a tube, an earplug, and the like.

従来の耳かけ型補聴器のケース本体内部には、マイクロホン・イヤホン・DSP(Digital Signal Processor)・電池などの部品が一つの空間に収納されていたため、イヤホンによる音や振動がマイクロホンへ伝搬し、増幅器を含めて形成される帰還ループにより、音質を劣化させる発振現象(ハウリング)などが発生するという問題があった。この主な原因はイヤホンが他部品と接触することにより発生する振動や音の複合的なものであり、特にケース本体の内壁と接触することによるものである。   In the case body of a conventional ear-type hearing aid, the microphone, earphone, DSP (Digital Signal Processor), battery, and other parts are housed in one space, so the sound and vibration from the earphone propagates to the microphone, and the amplifier There is a problem that an oscillation phenomenon (howling) that deteriorates sound quality occurs due to the feedback loop formed including the. The main cause is a combination of vibration and sound generated when the earphone comes into contact with other parts, particularly due to contact with the inner wall of the case body.

これを解決するためにケース本体の内部に側壁(仕切壁)を設けてイヤホンと他部品とを分離し取り付けるケース構造で、この分離されたケース本体の内壁にイヤホンが接触しないように、このイヤホンの回動及び進退動を防止する内装型イヤホンの取付構造が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   In order to solve this problem, a case structure in which a side wall (partition wall) is provided inside the case body to separate and attach the earphone and other components, and the earphone is prevented from contacting the inner wall of the separated case body. There has been proposed an internal earphone mounting structure that prevents the rotation and forward / backward movement (for example, see Patent Document 1).

また、補聴器の故障又は異なる出力強さによる聴覚障害への適合のために、要求に応じて所定の出力段階のあらかじめ完成された構成ブロックから集成することができる補聴器が提案されている(例えば、特許文献2参照)。   In addition, hearing aids have been proposed that can be assembled from pre-completed building blocks of a given output stage on demand for adaptation to hearing impairments due to hearing aid failures or different output intensities (e.g. Patent Document 2).

また、使用者の耳孔内に挿入する樹脂框体の中にイヤホンを組み込み、耳介に装着する補聴器本体とはコードによって接続した補聴器が提案されている(例えば、特許文献3参照)。
特開平11−146495号公報 特開平1−300800号公報 特開昭62−151100号公報
In addition, a hearing aid has been proposed in which an earphone is incorporated into a resin housing to be inserted into the user's ear canal and connected to a hearing aid main body attached to the auricle by a cord (for example, see Patent Document 3).
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-146495 JP-A-1-300800 JP-A-62-151100

しかし、特許文献1に記載の技術においては、イヤホンの振動への対策となるが、音への対応は不十分である。仕切壁はケース半体のそれぞれに設けられており、これらを組み合わせても、仕切壁の合せ目からの音漏れが生じ易く、仕切壁はイヤホンと他の部品とを分離するが、音に対しての遮音効果は低く、特に重・高度難聴用補聴器ではハウリングなどの問題は残る。また、仕切壁を設けるとこの仕切壁を含めたイヤホンのスペースが広くなり、ケースのサイズを大きくしなければならない。更に、補聴器のイヤホン修理では、作業者は他部品への気配りをしながらケースを分解しなければならないので、作業効率が低下する。   However, the technique described in Patent Document 1 is a measure against the vibration of the earphone, but the response to sound is insufficient. The partition walls are provided in each of the case halves, and even when they are combined, sound leakage from the joints of the partition walls is likely to occur, and the partition wall separates the earphone from other parts, The sound insulation effect is low, and problems such as howling remain in hearing aids for heavy and highly deafness. In addition, if a partition wall is provided, the space for the earphone including the partition wall becomes wider, and the size of the case must be increased. Further, in repairing the earphone of the hearing aid, the worker must disassemble the case while paying attention to other parts, so that the work efficiency is lowered.

特許文献2に記載の技術においては、ケース構成ブロックは各ブロックの電気的又は機械的な結合方法など各構成ブロックの具体的な構造は開示されていない。ケース構成ブロックでは各々独立した構成ブロックごとに電気的又は機械的な結合部のための部品や構成部が必要となり、ケースのサイズをさらに増加させてしまうことになる。   In the technology described in Patent Document 2, the case structure block does not disclose a specific structure of each structure block such as an electrical or mechanical coupling method of the blocks. In the case constituent block, parts and constituent parts for electrical or mechanical coupling parts are required for each independent constituent block, which further increases the size of the case.

特許文献3に記載の技術においては、イヤホンを耳孔内に装着することで、イヤホンの振動や音によるハウリングなどの問題はなくなるが、文献では開示されていない周波数特性において、周波数特性の高域(例えば4kHz以上)の音圧は急激に減少し、帯域の狭いものになってしまう。   In the technique described in Patent Document 3, by mounting the earphone in the ear canal, there is no problem such as howling due to vibration or sound of the earphone. However, in the frequency characteristics that are not disclosed in the literature, For example, the sound pressure of 4 kHz or more is suddenly reduced and becomes narrow.

本発明は、従来の技術が有するこのような問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、周波数特性の帯域を確保しつつ、音質を劣化させるハウリングなどを防止することができる耳かけ型補聴器を提供しようとするものである。   The present invention has been made in view of such problems of the prior art, and the object of the present invention is to prevent howling that degrades sound quality while ensuring a frequency characteristic band. It is intended to provide an ear-hearing type hearing aid.

上記課題を解決すべく請求項1に係る発明は、ケース本体、フック、チューブや耳せんなどからなる耳かけ型補聴器であって、マイクロホンを前記ケース本体の内部に配置し、前記ケース本体に取り付けられる前記フックの端部側の内部に空間を形成すると共に、この空間からイヤホンの出力音を導く音導部を設け、イヤホンを前記空間前記マイクロホンと分離して配置するものである。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention according to claim 1 is an ear-hearing type hearing aid comprising a case main body, a hook, a tube, an earplug, etc., and a microphone is disposed inside the case main body and attached to the case main body. A space is formed inside the end portion of the hook to be provided, and a sound guide portion for guiding the output sound of the earphone is provided from this space, and the earphone is arranged separately from the microphone in the space .

請求項2に係る発明は、請求項1記載の耳かけ型補聴器において、前記フックの内部に、前記イヤホンの音出力口の周囲を覆う弾性保持部材と、前記イヤホンの端子と電気的に導通する弾性コネクタを設け、前記イヤホンを前記フックの内面に接することなく配置して、前記マイクロホンに対する防振・遮音構造を構成するものである。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the hook-type hearing aid according to the first aspect, the hook is electrically connected to the elastic holding member that covers the periphery of the sound output port of the earphone and the terminal of the earphone. An elastic connector is provided, and the earphone is arranged without being in contact with the inner surface of the hook to constitute an anti-vibration / sound insulation structure for the microphone.

請求項3に係る発明は、請求項1記載の耳かけ型補聴器において、前記フックの内部に、前記イヤホンの音出力口の周囲を覆うと共に前記イヤホンの本体の一部も覆う弾性保持部材を設け、前記イヤホンを前記フックの内面に接することなく配置して、前記マイクロホンに対する防振・遮音構造を構成するものである。   According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the hook-type hearing aid according to the first aspect, an elastic holding member that covers the periphery of the sound output port of the earphone and also covers a part of the main body of the earphone is provided inside the hook. The earphone is arranged without being in contact with the inner surface of the hook to constitute a vibration-proof and sound-insulating structure for the microphone.

本発明によれば、イヤホンとマイクロホンが分離して設置されるので、周波数特性の帯域を確保しつつ(例えば6kHzまで) 、イヤホンの音と振動がマイクロホンへ伝搬し難くなり、音質を劣化させるハウリングなどを抑制することができる。イヤホンの修理では、ケース本体を分解する必要がないので、作業者は他部品への気配りをすることなく修理でき、作業効率が向上する。フックに配置した方が、ケース内部にイヤホンを配置したときに比べ、省スペースとなり、耳かけ型補聴器の小型化が図られる。   According to the present invention, since the earphone and the microphone are separately installed, the sound and vibration of the earphone are difficult to propagate to the microphone while ensuring the frequency characteristic band (for example, up to 6 kHz), and howling that deteriorates the sound quality. Etc. can be suppressed. In the repair of the earphone, it is not necessary to disassemble the case body, so that the operator can repair without paying attention to other parts, and the work efficiency is improved. Compared to the case where the earphone is arranged inside the case, the arrangement on the hook saves space, and the ear-type hearing aid can be downsized.

以下に本発明の実施の形態を添付図面に基づいて説明する。ここで、図1は本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の全体斜視図、図2は本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の第1実施の形態の要部断面図、図3は同じく第2実施の形態の要部断面図、図4は同じく第3実施の形態の要部断面図である。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the ear-type hearing aid according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the main part of the first embodiment of the ear-type hearing aid according to the present invention, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the principal part of the third embodiment. FIG.

本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器1は、図1に示すように、ケース本体2、フック3、チューブ4、ジョイント5、耳せん6などからなる。ケース本体2の内部には、マイクロホン、補聴処理部としてのDSP(Digital Signal Processor)や電池などの部品を収納している。イヤホンはフック3の内部に配置し、ケース本体2の内部に配置するマイクロホンと分離し、イヤホンの音・振動がマイクロホンへ伝わらないようにする各種の防音・防振構造及びイヤホンとケース本体2との電気的接続構造を構成している(第1実施の形態〜第3実施の形態)。   As shown in FIG. 1, an ear-mounted hearing aid 1 according to the present invention includes a case body 2, a hook 3, a tube 4, a joint 5, an earplug 6, and the like. The case body 2 contains components such as a microphone, a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) as a hearing aid processing unit, and a battery. The earphone is arranged inside the hook 3 and separated from the microphone arranged inside the case main body 2, and various soundproof / vibration-proof structures that prevent the sound and vibration of the earphone from being transmitted to the microphone, and the earphone and the case main body 2 The electrical connection structure is configured (first to third embodiments).

本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の第1実施の形態は、図2(a)に示すように、フック3の内部にイヤホン8を配置する空間を形成し、イヤホン8を保持部材10で保持すると共に、コネクタ11によりイヤホン8とケース本体2を圧接で電気的に接続している。フック3には、イヤホン8の出力音をチューブ4に導く導音部9が設けられている。   As shown in FIG. 2 (a), the first embodiment of the behind-the-ear hearing aid according to the present invention forms a space for placing the earphone 8 inside the hook 3, and holds the earphone 8 with the holding member 10. At the same time, the earphone 8 and the case main body 2 are electrically connected by the connector 11 by pressure contact. The hook 3 is provided with a sound guide portion 9 that guides the output sound of the earphone 8 to the tube 4.

ケース本体2へのフック3の取付は、ケース本体2の端部に形成された凸部2aとフック3の端部に形成された凹部3aの嵌合で行われる。凸部2aには電極13a,13bが設けられ、凸部2aの断面形状は楕円や多角形など凹部3aと嵌合しても回転しない形状である。   The hook 3 is attached to the case main body 2 by fitting a convex portion 2 a formed at the end of the case main body 2 and a concave portion 3 a formed at the end of the hook 3. Electrodes 13a and 13b are provided on the convex portion 2a, and the cross-sectional shape of the convex portion 2a is a shape that does not rotate even when fitted to the concave portion 3a, such as an ellipse or a polygon.

イヤホン8をフック3の内部に保持するための保持部材10は、弾性体(例えば、ニトリルゴム、シリコンゴムなど)で形成され(例えば、ゴムパッキン)、フック3の内面に設けた段部3bに当接している。保持部材(ゴムパッキン)10は、ケース本体2の内部に配置するマイクロホン7への音漏れ防止と防振と位置決め用であり、イヤホン8がフック3の内面に接触しない役目を果たす。   The holding member 10 for holding the earphone 8 inside the hook 3 is formed of an elastic body (for example, nitrile rubber, silicon rubber, etc.) (for example, rubber packing), and is provided on a step portion 3 b provided on the inner surface of the hook 3. It is in contact. The holding member (rubber packing) 10 is for preventing sound leakage, vibration isolation, and positioning to the microphone 7 disposed inside the case body 2, and serves to prevent the earphone 8 from contacting the inner surface of the hook 3.

コネクタ11は、図2(b)に示すように、弾力があり電気的絶縁となる材料(例えば、ニトリルゴム、シリコンゴムなど)で形成され、組み込んだ際にケース本体2の凸部2aに設けた電極13a,13bとイヤホン8の端子8a,8bが接触する位置に夫々金属製の細線(例えば銅線)14が巻かれている。そして、コネクタ11はイヤホン8との電気的接続を確保すると共に、イヤホン8の防振と位置決め用であり、ゴムパッキン10と共にフック3の内面にイヤホン8が接触しないように保持する役目を果たす。   As shown in FIG. 2B, the connector 11 is formed of a material that is elastic and electrically insulating (for example, nitrile rubber, silicon rubber, etc.), and is provided on the convex portion 2a of the case body 2 when assembled. Metal thin wires (for example, copper wires) 14 are wound at positions where the electrodes 13a, 13b and the terminals 8a, 8b of the earphone 8 are in contact with each other. The connector 11 secures an electrical connection with the earphone 8 and is used for vibration isolation and positioning of the earphone 8 and plays a role of holding the earphone 8 so as not to contact the inner surface of the hook 3 together with the rubber packing 10.

保持部材としては、ゴムパッキン10の他に、図2(c)に示すように、イヤホン8の音出力口の周囲を覆うと共にイヤホン8本体の一部も覆う保持部材12でもよい。この場合、保持部材12だけでイヤホン8がフック3の内面に接触しないように保持する役目を果たすことができるので、コネクタ11にその役目を果たさせる必要がなくなる。   As the holding member, in addition to the rubber packing 10, as shown in FIG. 2C, a holding member 12 that covers the periphery of the sound output port of the earphone 8 and also covers a part of the main body of the earphone 8 may be used. In this case, the holding member 12 alone can serve to hold the earphone 8 so as not to contact the inner surface of the hook 3, so that it is not necessary for the connector 11 to play that role.

図2(b)に示すコネクタ11を用いず、図2(d)に示すように、弾性のあるコネクタ15にイヤホン8の端子8a,8bと直接接触する電極16a,16bを設け、これをケース本体2に取り付ける構造も可能である。この場合、ケース本体2を構成する各々の半体ケースに、コネクタ15の組込み部を形成しておけばよい。また、フック3に対するイヤホン8の取付位置が安定するように、図2(c)に示す保持部材12を用いるのが望ましい。   Without using the connector 11 shown in FIG. 2 (b), electrodes 16a and 16b that directly contact the terminals 8a and 8b of the earphone 8 are provided on the elastic connector 15 as shown in FIG. A structure attached to the main body 2 is also possible. In this case, a built-in portion of the connector 15 may be formed in each half case constituting the case body 2. Further, it is desirable to use the holding member 12 shown in FIG. 2C so that the attachment position of the earphone 8 with respect to the hook 3 is stabilized.

以上のように構成された本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の第1実施の形態の作用について説明する。フック3をケース本体2に取り付けることで、装用者が耳介に装着するための形状が形成されることになる。マイクロホン7とイヤホン8が分離して設置されるので、イヤホン8の音と振動がマイクロホン7へ伝搬することなく、音質を劣化させるハウリングなどを防止することができる。   The operation of the first embodiment of the hook-type hearing aid according to the present invention configured as described above will be described. By attaching the hook 3 to the case body 2, a shape for the wearer to attach to the auricle is formed. Since the microphone 7 and the earphone 8 are installed separately, the sound and vibration of the earphone 8 do not propagate to the microphone 7, and howling that degrades the sound quality can be prevented.

導音部9の内部形状(断面積や長さ)を変えることにより音響的な共振周波数を調整することができる。チューブ4・耳栓6は、導音部9から導かれたイヤホン8の出力音を装用者の外耳道へ導く。フック3と同様に、これら4,6の内部形状を変えることで音響的な共振周波数を調整することができる。フック3・チューブ4・耳栓6により、周波数特性において、1〜2kHz以下の音を導くと共に、音響的な共振により2〜6kHzの高域音を得ることができる。所望以上の音響的共振によるピークは音響ダンパを用いてレベルを下げることができる。   The acoustic resonance frequency can be adjusted by changing the internal shape (cross-sectional area and length) of the sound guide section 9. The tube 4 and the earplug 6 guide the output sound of the earphone 8 guided from the sound guide unit 9 to the ear canal of the wearer. Similar to the hook 3, the acoustic resonance frequency can be adjusted by changing the internal shapes of these 4 and 6. The hook 3, tube 4 and earplug 6 can guide a sound of 1 to 2 kHz or less in the frequency characteristics, and can obtain a high frequency sound of 2 to 6 kHz by acoustic resonance. Peaks due to acoustic resonance beyond what is desired can be lowered using an acoustic damper.

なお、チューブ4を兼ねた形状のフックを用いることで、装用者が耳かけ型補聴器を装着した際に、フックの先端が装用者の外耳道の開口部に配置するようにすることもできる。また、イヤホン8の修理は、ケース本体2を分解することなく、フック3をケース本体2から外すことで可能となる。   In addition, by using a hook having a shape that also serves as the tube 4, the tip of the hook can be arranged at the opening of the ear canal of the wearer when the wearer wears the ear hearing aid. The earphone 8 can be repaired by removing the hook 3 from the case body 2 without disassembling the case body 2.

次に、本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の第2実施の形態は、図3(a)に示すように、フック3の内部にイヤホン8を配置する空間を形成し、イヤホン8を保持部材12で保持すると共に、イヤホン8の端子8a,8bとケース本体2の凸部2aに設けた電極13a,13bを半田付けしたリード線20a,20bで電気的に接続している。フック3には、イヤホン8の出力音をチューブ4に導く導音部9が設けられている。   Next, in the second embodiment of the hook-type hearing aid according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 3A, a space for arranging the earphone 8 is formed inside the hook 3, and the earphone 8 is held by the holding member 12. In addition, the terminals 8a and 8b of the earphone 8 and the electrodes 13a and 13b provided on the protrusion 2a of the case body 2 are electrically connected by lead wires 20a and 20b. The hook 3 is provided with a sound guide portion 9 that guides the output sound of the earphone 8 to the tube 4.

また、図3(b)に示すように、保持部材として、図2(a)に示すゴムパッキン10を用いることもできる。この場合、フック3に対するイヤホン8の取付位置を安定させるために、イヤホン8の本体部に弾性のある帯状のサスペンション21が必要となる(例えば、シリコンゴム製)。リード線20a,20bはウレタン銅線などで、イヤホン8をフック3に組込むために必要な長さである。その他の構成・作用は、第1実施の形態と同様である。   Moreover, as shown in FIG.3 (b), the rubber packing 10 shown to Fig.2 (a) can also be used as a holding member. In this case, in order to stabilize the attachment position of the earphone 8 with respect to the hook 3, an elastic belt-like suspension 21 is required on the main body of the earphone 8 (for example, made of silicon rubber). The lead wires 20a and 20b are urethane copper wires or the like and have a length necessary for incorporating the earphone 8 into the hook 3. Other configurations and operations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

次に、本発明に係る耳かけ型補聴器の第3実施の形態は、図4(a)に示すように、フック23の内部にイヤホン8を配置する空間を形成し、イヤホン8を保持部材12で保持すると共に、イヤホン8の端子8a,8bとケース本体22の凸部22aに設けた電極13a,13bを半田付けしたリード線20a,20bで電気的に接続している。フック23には、イヤホン8の出力音をチューブ4に導く導音部9が設けられている。ケース本体22へのフック23の取付は、ケース本体22の端部に形成された雄ねじ部22bとフック23の端部に形成された雌ねじ部23aの螺合により行われる。   Next, as shown in FIG. 4A, the third embodiment of the ear-hearing hearing aid according to the present invention forms a space in which the earphone 8 is arranged inside the hook 23, and the earphone 8 is held by the holding member 12. In addition, the terminals 8a and 8b of the earphone 8 and the electrodes 13a and 13b provided on the convex portion 22a of the case body 22 are electrically connected by lead wires 20a and 20b. The hook 23 is provided with a sound guide portion 9 that guides the output sound of the earphone 8 to the tube 4. The hook 23 is attached to the case main body 22 by screwing a male screw portion 22b formed at the end of the case main body 22 and a female screw portion 23a formed at the end of the hook 23.

また、図4(b)に示すように、保持部材として、図2(a)に示すゴムパッキン10を用いることもできる。この場合、フック23に対するイヤホン8の取付位置を安定させるために、イヤホン8の本体部に弾性のある帯状のサスペンション21が必要となる(例えば、シリコンゴム製)。リード線20a,20bはウレタン銅線などで、イヤホン8をフック23に組込むために必要な長さである。その他の構成・作用は、第1実施の形態と同様である。   Moreover, as shown in FIG.4 (b), the rubber packing 10 shown to Fig.2 (a) can also be used as a holding member. In this case, in order to stabilize the mounting position of the earphone 8 with respect to the hook 23, an elastic belt-like suspension 21 is required for the main body of the earphone 8 (for example, made of silicon rubber). The lead wires 20 a and 20 b are urethane copper wires or the like, and have a length necessary for incorporating the earphone 8 into the hook 23. Other configurations and operations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

本発明によれば、周波数特性の帯域を確保しつつ(例えば6kHzまで) 、イヤホンの音と振動がマイクロホンへ伝搬することなく、音質を劣化させるハウリングなどを防止することができる耳かけ型補聴器を提供することができる。   According to the present invention, there is provided an ear-hearing type hearing aid that can prevent howling and the like that degrade sound quality without propagating the sound and vibration of the earphone to the microphone while ensuring a frequency characteristic band (for example, up to 6 kHz). Can be provided.
