Abstract: Acoustic valve for a hearing device, including a valve body defining a passageway, and a seat member and shutter member inside the valve body. The shutter member defines a shutter surface that forms a contact portion and a non-contact portion. The shutter member is moveable relative to the seat member to transition the valve between an opened state, wherein the shutter member is removed from the seat member and the passageway is open to allow sound to pass, and a closed state wherein the contact portion abuts the seat member and the non-contact portion blocks the passageway to restrict passage of sound. The contact portion forms a protruding structure that extends from the non-contact portion and towards the seat member, and has a small width along at least one transverse direction to minimise a contact area between the contact portion and the seat member when the valve is closed.

Abstract: A hearing device comprising a body provided with a dome, wherein a vent path is provided through the body, and wherein the body is further provided with a valve and a valve driver which connects to the valve for opening and closing of the vent path, wherein when the vent path is closed the valve engages the body, and wherein said valve driver comprises a permanent or switchable magnet and a first electrical coil for generating magnetic field lines that cooperate with the permanent or switchable magnet for moving the valve, wherein the valve driver is arranged to energize the first electrical coil with a current magnitude and/or direction that depends on a position of the valve between an open position wherein the vent path is open and a closed position wherein the vent path is closed.

Abstract: A personal hearing device with a first dome, a receiver, a speaker channel extending from the receiver through the dome to a speaker channel output, an acoustic vent channel extending from outside of the receiver and through the dome, where an acoustic separation is provided between the speaker channel output and the vent opening to reduce the amount of sound output by the receiver entering the vent channel.

Abstract: A receiver assembly including a first receiver having a distinct longitudinal direction and a first longitudinal centre line, and a second receiver having a distinct longitudinal direction and a second longitudinal centre line. The distinct longitudinal directions of the first and second receivers are arranged essentially along a distinct longitudinal direction of the receiver assembly. The receiver assembly further includes one or more microphone units.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a hearing device adapted to be positioned in an ear canal of a user, the hearing device comprising a receiver unit, a positioning member adapted to position and hold the hearing device in the ear canal of a user, and a vibration preventing arrangement adapted to prevent vibrations of a least part of the positioning member.

Abstract: A personal hearing device with an outer housing and a sound path with a length of 1-24 mm, a diameter of 0.5-6 mm, a roll of frequency of at least 500 Hz and with a valve configured to open and close the sound path. The sound path has suitable acoustical properties to act as a sound passage for open/closed hearing aids or hearables. The valve is selected to have a small influence on the acoustical properties of the remaining portions of the sound path.

Abstract: A sound channel with a side opening which may be opened or closed by an electromagnetic actuator. The sound channel may remain open and may thus be used as a spout of a sound generator for e.g. a hearing aid, where the side opening may be used as a vent.

The distinct longitudinal directions of the first and second receivers are arranged essentially along a distinct longitudinal direction of the receiver assembly. The receiver assembly further includes one or more microphone units.

Abstract: An assembly of a transformer and an electrostatic sound generator is especially efficient if the resonance frequency of the diaphragm is in the frequency range in which the generator is operated, such as in the interval of 1-20 kHz. Then, a smaller transformer with a winding ratio of 5000 or less may be used for feeding the sound generator, making the assembly suitable for hearing aid purposes or in-ear products such as for pro audio use.

Abstract: The present invention provides a receiver assembly comprising a receiver and an assembly housing. The receiver comprises a sound outlet configured to outlet sound from the receiver. The receiver is arranged at least partly within the assembly housing. The assembly housing comprises an assembly sound outlet. The sound outlet is arranged in communication with the assembly sound outlet for outlet of sound from the receiver via the assembly sound outlet. A vibration dampening element connects the sound outlet and the assembly sound outlet. The vibration dampening element is formed by an elastic foil and is compliant to reduce vibrations from the receiver to the assembly housing.
