Abstract: Aspects describe air flow relief features in the cosmetic surface of the housing of an in-ear audio output device. Due to design constraints based, at least in part, on the limited space available in the acoustic chamber and ear geometry, ports coupling the acoustic chamber with an area outside the housing are susceptible to full blockage when placed in-ear. Air flow relief channels for ports, extending from the port aligned in the concha cymba, over the helix crus, to the cymba cavum minimize complete blockages of the port as compared to current designs.

Abstract: In a method for adapting an otoplastic of a hearing aid, a flexible outer shell is provided which is made of a material that can be cured, but has not yet been cured. A housing interior is sealed at the end facing the eardrum and at the opposite end. The housing interior is connected to a pressure and curing facilitator via a pressure inlet opening. The outer shell is introduced into the ear canal of the hearing aid wearer, and an inner pressure with an increased inner pressure value is applied to the housing interior via the pressure and curing facilitator such that the outer shell lies against the ear canal wall. The hardening process of the curable material is then initiated via the pressure and curing facilitator while maintaining the inner pressure value.
