Abstract: A loudspeaker box that is particularly suitable for a hearing aid, includes a cup-like box bottom shell, which delimits a box interior for at least partially receiving a loudspeaker, and a cup-like box cover shell, which, in the intended assembly state of the loudspeaker box, is placed on the box bottom shell overlapping it for a part of its cup height to enclose the box interior and to house the loudspeaker. In the intended assembly state, the box bottom shell and the box top shell form a fluid-tight seal of the box interior in the region of their overlap by the use of a material with increased elasticity relative to the box bottom shell and/or the box cover shell. The box bottom shell and cover shell are reversibly connected to one another in a nondestructively releasable manner.

Abstract: A hearing aid, in particular a hearing aid device, has a housing with a housing wall, in which a microphone is arranged. The housing wall has a chamber like a pocket hole, which is acoustically coupled to the microphone, and into which an inlet open on the outer side of the housing opens. The chamber is expanded in comparison to the inlet.

Abstract: A dome for retaining a hearing device or hearing device part in the ear of a user wearing the hearing device. The dome includes, or is composed of, an indicator material that changes perceptibly as a function of a duration of use of the dome. Based on the change in the indicator material, it is possible to ascertain that a recommended maximum duration of use of the dome has been exceeded.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a circuit, in particular of a hearing aid, in which method a printed circuit board is made available with a first region and with a second region which are separated by means of a boundary. A component is mounted on the printed circuit board, wherein the component is positioned on the boundary. The first region is covered by means of a mask which has an edge, wherein the edge is positioned on the component, and the printed circuit board is provided with a coating. The coating is cut away in the region of the component and the mask is removed.

Abstract: A hearing device includes a frame for insertion into a housing and for retaining hearing device components. The frame includes two frame parts being joined together or to be joined together, substantially along a partition plane and being mechanically interconnected or to be mechanically interconnected by a connecting clip. In a first variant, the connecting clip has two spaced apart and parallel pins engaging into corresponding recesses in the respective frame parts for holding the frame parts together by form-locking engagement transversely to the partition plane. In a second variant, each frame part has a pin engaging into a respective corresponding recess in the connecting clip for holding the frame parts together by form-locking engagement transversely to the partition plane. This permits the frame to be produced particularly efficiently. A connecting clip for a hearing device is also provided.

Abstract: A hearing device contains an electronic frame for holding electronic components. The hearing device has first and second resilient contacts. The resilient contacts are fastened to the electronic frame, and the resilient contacts reversibly electrically contact an electronic component using contact surfaces of a double-pole battery. The hearing device contains a rechargeable battery module that contains a rechargeable battery and an electronic convertor. The rechargeable battery module is connected in an articulated manner to the electronic frame so as to be able to move and contains connecting contacts that correspond to the resilient contacts. A kit is provided for the hearing device and the kit has a battery compartment door for reversibly holding the double-pole battery. The battery compartment door is connected to pivot on the electronic frame such that as the battery compartment door is pivoted into a closed position the contact surfaces of the double-pole battery are contacted.

Abstract: An electronics frame for a hearing device serves to hold electronic components and has a contact carrier. The carrier in turn has a first line connector, a second line connector, and a third line connector. The three line connectors serve to electrically contact at least one of the electronic components with a first connection contact, a second connection contact which is at a potential that is different from the first connection contact, and with a third connection contact of a storage battery module which has a rechargeable battery. The contact carrier moreover has a first insertion slot for receiving a first contact arm which serves to electrically contact a contact of a two-pole battery. A kit for the hearing device contains, in addition to the hearing device with the electronics frame, the storage battery module and at least the first contact arm for subsequent mounting on the contact carrier.

Abstract: A hearing aid, in particular a BTE hearing aid, includes an ear insert having an earpiece and an attachment part being linked to a receiver. The earpiece includes an elongate adapter and a plurality of shields. The adapter is mounted on the attachment part and extends in a longitudinal direction. The earpiece is in a modular form and the at least one shield is exchangeably fitted onto the adapter. The adapter has a head with a rear abutment contour against which at least one of the shields abuts. In this way, the earpiece is particularly variably and flexibly configurable. A corresponding earpiece is also provided.

Abstract: A hearing instrument has a hearing device rear housing, at least one microphone, a receiver, an earpiece connection or a soundc tube, an earpiece, a power supply unit, and a signal processing unit. The power supply unit includes a rechargeable power supply and an actuating and control device. The hearing instrument further includes a switching device that is configured to assume at least two switching states, and the actuating and control device is configured to actuate a switched-off state of the hearing instrument depending on the switching state of the switching device. There is also described a corresponding power supply unit for a hearing instrument.

Abstract: A hearing aid has a battery charger. The hearing aid contains a battery charger having an opening for accommodating a programming module having first programming contacts. Furthermore, second programming contacts are arranged in the hearing aid. The hearing aid is characterized by a sealant inserted in the opening, wherein the sealant covers the second programming contacts when the battery charger is shut off. Thus, the corrosion susceptibility of the second programming contacts is mostly avoided in an advantageous way.
