  • Bone conduction device having a multilayer piezoelectric element
    Patent number: 8837760
    Abstract: A bone conduction device comprising a multilayer piezoelectric element. The multilayer piezoelectric element comprises two stacked piezoelectric layers, and a flexible passive layer disposed between the piezoelectric layers. The device also comprises a mass component attached to the multilayer piezoelectric element; and a coupling attached to the multilayer piezoelectric element configured to transfer mechanical forces generated by the multilayer piezoelectric element and the mass component to a recipient's skull.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 25, 2010
    Date of Patent: September 16, 2014
    Assignee: Cochlear Limited
    Inventors: Marcus Andersson, Kristian Asnes, Erik Holgersson, Patrik W. Strömsten, Wim Bervoets
