Definitions
- the invention relates to a tubular body for sound transmission.
- Behind-the-ear hearing aids in particular are on a large scale in use, the sound transmission through the outer ear canal to the eardrum. Behind-the-ear hearing aids the sound is picked up by the microphone of the hearing aid, reinforced according to audiological requirements and via the radially coupled headphones emitted. At the handset exit there is usually a hearing angle above the pinna for the inclusion of a sound tube, which by means of a Otoplasty leads into the external ear canal. So the shines Sound amplified by the hearing aid via the sound tube and the sound channel above and then in front of the pinna over the Otoplasty directly in the ear canal and thus on the eardrum.
- in-the-ear hearing aids have also already been proposed that do not have this disadvantage, in particular when the visible area of the in-the-ear hearing aid is adapted to the skin color of the respective patient.
- a disadvantage of these arrangements is that the ear canal is closed, so it is no longer open, which of many Patient is felt to be uncomfortable.
- the actual hearing aid that is worn behind the ear for example crosses the auricle using a sound conductor, which leads through an opening in the auricle, and in the area of the Cavum Conchae.
- connection between the ear canal and the hearing aid or hearing aid leads through the auricle and is always visible. This shows 5 is particularly clear.
- FIG. 9 clearly shows that towards the outside towards a hearing aid or hearing aid can be seen, with this Embodiment of the ear canal not occupied by a fitting is, but it is essentially outward through a Component covered.
- the invention has for its object a sound transmission device to create the most invisible attached can be, but also the sound transmission improved and through which the ear canal is not completely is closed.
- This object on which the invention is based is achieved by a Disconnected tubular body, one end of which is behind the Ear between the temporal bone in the area of the pars petrosa and the auricle opens behind the auricle and its other end opens into the ear canal and on end of the eardrum is sonicated.
- tubular body on his free end to the sound outlet opening of a behind-the-ear hearing aid can be connected. It is also proposed that the tubular body itself is designed as a hearing aid and in the area the free end of the microphone and the ear canal End of the phone.
- the tube body can also only carry the handset and with one external device connected to record the sound information his.
- the tube body is connected to a behind-the-ear hearing aid, it is important that a light but tight connection is possible, and so it is suggested that one between the Sound outlet of the hearing aid and a sound line provided To use a sealing sleeve that provides an almost tension-free, but sound wave tight connection of the wall of the Sound outlet with the wall of the formwork line z. B. of the retroauricular tubular body.
- the tubular body can be made of plastic, but is preferred made of titanium according to the invention, with which he has the required strength and tissue compatibility. If the tubular body is made of titanium, it is preferred formed in three parts and consists of an ear piece, one Outer piece and a connecting body, the ear piece and screwed the outer piece into the connecting body can be, so that thereby also length adjustments of the actual tubular body are possible.
- tubular body is made of titanium appears it is advantageous to ensure that a safe Position of the tubular body in the body opening is ensured, which is preferably achieved in that the outside of the tubular body is designed to be non-slip. This can be done once through a corresponding roughening or partial thickening the outside, but can be done in the same way also done in that a kind of thread on the outside is attached, which then also gives the possibility without Skin injuries to adjust the tubular body in the body opening. Of course, these measures can also be provided if the tubular body is made of plastic.
- a tubular body which has a sound signal recording behind the ear between the temporal bone in the area of the pars petrosa and pinna so that the sound guide is not visible from behind through a body opening into the ear canal outer ear is guided and thus sonicates the eardrum can be.
- the tubular body itself is designed as a hearing aid. All necessary electrical or electronic components so laid in the tubular body, the one behind the ear ends freely and here, for example, wear a small microphone can and the other end ends freely in the ear canal and here in the tubular body or ear canal. With this arrangement is therefore the cumbersome and unnecessary hearing aid avoided behind the ear, which is not always safe from the Ear can be worn and on the other hand is still achieved that the ear canal is not completely closed.
- 1 denotes a tubular body, the latter one end in the ear canal 4 and the other end between the back of the auricle 7 and the temporal bone flows.
- a sound inlet opening 2 (FIG. 2 and 3) trained mouth formed simultaneously as a microphone 3 his.
- Within the tubular body 1 lies at the other end, that opens freely into the auditory canal 4, according to FIG and further electrical components 5 can be seen.
- the ear is drawn from the front and the auditory canal 4 can be seen in which the Pipe body 1 is located now after penetrating a body opening freely behind the ear between the temporal bone and Ear cup opens.
- the tubular body is 1st lengthened towards the top and now ends at the top approach the auricle 7 and there is equipped with a microphone 3, so that the sound waves are recorded from the front can.
- a sound outlet 8 is equipped. At this sound outlet 8 connects a formwork line 9, which is designed as a separate component can be or directly through the tubular body 1 can be formed.
- a formwork line 9 which is designed as a separate component can be or directly through the tubular body 1 can be formed.
- the connection of the formwork line 9 or the tubular body 1 to the Sound outlet 8 the sound outlet 8 with a sealing sleeve 10 is provided which has an almost voltage-free, but sound wave tight connection of the wall of the Sound outlet 8 with the wall of the retroauricular Formwork line 9 allows, this sealing sleeve 10 on the outside the sound outlet 8 is provided and thus lies within the formwork line 9 or the tubular body 1.
- the actual tubular body 1 can consist of plastic, but can also be made of metal, then preferably from Titanium, which is particularly tissue-friendly.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 Such a tubular body 1 is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, which consists of titanium and is composed of three individual parts, namely an earpiece 12, a connector 15 and an outer piece 14, which opens behind the ear. These three parts are connected by screwing, the Outer piece 14 has an external thread just like that Earpiece 12 and the actual connector 15 with corresponding Internal thread areas is provided.
- This kind the training has the advantage that length adjustments both inside the ear canal as well as outside the Head are possible by now facing the outer piece 14 the connector 15 shifted in length is just like the earpiece 12, which is opposite in length the connector 15 can be moved.
- the actual tubular body 1 is endeavored as fixed as possible within the body opening and it is proposed that the outside of the actual The tubular body 1 is designed to be relatively non-slip in any form becomes.
- This can e.g. B. done by thread on the outside of the pipe section 1 shown in FIG. 5 is so that now by turning the entire component, in particular the connector 15, opposite the Body opening an adjustment, but also a locking of the Tubular body 1 is possible.
- the tubular body 1 according to FIG. 6 can also be compressed be provided, which are then on both sides of the body opening.
- Fig. 7 shows that it is possible in the tubular body 1st to use a device support tube 16 on which all necessary electrical or electronic components are attached can, which form the actual hearing aid, which is now in the Tubular body 1 is arranged.
- the device support tube 16 is by spring tabs 17 in the tubular body 1 or in the component 14 resiliently fixed, and this can also be provided that between the equipment support tube 16 and the inside of the Tube piece 14 is arranged an insulating tube, which is now too contributes to better sound guidance.
