Abstract: A detachable earpiece auditory device comprises a housing, a speaker, and a connector. The housing has a sound outlet, a second opening, and a spring element positioned at the second opening. The speaker is provided within the housing and comprises an electrically conducting speaker terminal at an outer surface of the speaker. The connector comprises a first insert part, an electrically conducting connector terminal, and a second insert part. The first insert part is insertable into the second opening. The electrically conducting connector terminal is positioned in the first insert part to obtain electrical contact with the electrically conducting speaker terminal and forms a mating pair of a speaker terminal and a connector terminal when the first insert part is inserted into the second opening. The second insert part operatively contacts the spring element to bias the speaker terminal against the connector terminal with a predetermined bias force.

Abstract: An integral volume control and switch assembly comprising a resilient conductive member serving for switching between a first and second switch state and a resilient tactile member serving for providing a user with a tactile feedback upon change of switch state. The resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member are formed by separate members. Hereby the assembly can be further miniaturised without the resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member being too small to handle in a manufacturing process. In addition, it is possible to adjust angular position of the rotatable member where switch function and tactile feedback occurs. Preferably the resilient tactile member and the resilient conductive member are spatially separated along a rotational axis of the rotatable member. The assembly according to the invention is suitable for hearing aids.
