Abstract: The invention relates to a hearing device that comprises a flexible electric connection between device components that are pivotably connected to each other. The electric connection comprises an originally flat flexible circuit comprising one or more electric conductors embedded in a flexible substrate. The flexible circuit comprises a centre portion that is curved in its original, flat state and that in its mounted stage is bent to form a turn such that two curved sections of the curved centre portion emerge that are arranged opposite to each other in two spaced apart planes that essentially are parallel to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to an ear cup with an attachment unit, which is configured to be used within a head-worn hearing device. The attachment unit comprises at least one connection section, which is arranged and configured to rotatable connect the attachment unit with the ear cup and thereby define an axis of rotation of the ear cup. The attachment unit further comprises an opening, which is arranged to allow a charge interface of the ear cup, which extends out of an ear cup casing of the ear cup, to pivot through the attachment unit while the ear cup is being rotated with respect to the attachment unit along the axis of rotation, wherein the charge interface is directed to the attachment unit and is placed at a side portion of the ear cup between a hearing portion of the ear cup, facing to an ear of a user, and a back portion of the ear cup, facing away from the user.

Abstract: A hearing device, e.g. a hearing aid, having a protection system is disclosed.
