  • Patent number: 8311251
    Abstract: An electronic component and, in particular, an external receiver of a hearing aid, are intended to be capable of being configured to be simpler and more robust. To this end, it is proposed that the electronic apparatus, which has an electronic component and a cable which is connected to the electronic component, is equipped with a first sleeve which is arranged around a part of the electronic component and a part of the cable and mechanically connects the two, and a second sleeve, which surrounds another part of the electronic component. The first sleeve and the second sleeve are coaxially directly connected to one another such that both sleeves together also completely surround the electronic component in the axial direction. The two sleeves can possibly be connected to one another by laser welding.

  • Patent number: 8083022
    Abstract: The invention specifies a receiver support for snapping into an earmold with a spherical section and with a conical section, which is embodied on the end facing the earmold and which tapers towards the earmold. The earmold comprises an adapter element permanently arranged in the earmold, into which the receiver support is able to be detachably firmly inserted. The adapter element features a bead-shaped depression, with which the spherical section of the receiver support can form a positive fit, so that the receiver support is supported to allow tilting or deflection in the adapter element. The invention also specifies the use of a thermoplast with selected properties for the manufacturing of the adapter element. The advantage is the secure and durable snap-in connection between a receiver support and an earmold.
