    摘要: The present invention relates to a modular hearing aid having a base unit and a detachable earmold. A battery, an earmold tip and a receiver can be integrated with the earmold. The earmold can also include a removably attached module. The module can have a shell, electronics, a receiver or a microphone. A hearing aid also includes a flexible hearing aid tip having a vibration isolator portion and a mushroom shaped tip portion. The vibration isolator portion mechanically decouples a receiver from a hearing aid base unit while the mushroom shaped tip portion provides an acoustic seal in the ear canal of a user. The internal components of a hearing aid can be potted to attenuate vibrations created by the receiver during operation.

    摘要: A technique for positioning a body having a tapered profile when viewed along a first axis comprises exposing the body to a first beam of light oriented along the first axis in a manner such that the tapered profile is projected as a first image onto a first linear array of photodectors disposed along a direction orthogonal to both the first axis and the direction of the taper. The body is exposed to a second beam of light oriented along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis in a manner such that a second profile of the body is projected as a second image onto a second linear array of photodetectors disposed along a direction parallel to the first axis. The body is then moved along the first and the second axes until the first and the second images strike predetermined locations along the first and second photodetector arrays. The location of the body is also changed along a third axis, orthogonal to the first and the second axes, until the width of the first image equals a predetermined width measured by the linear magnitude of the first image along the first photodetector array.

    摘要: A disposable-type hearing aid uses a relatively large single diaphragm or a large single diaphragm subdivided into a plurality of smaller active diaphragm areas obtained using a grate-like back support plate with ridges which contact and divide the diaphragm into the several smaller active diaphragm areas. The diaphragm and a backplate are enclosed in a metal housing and are disposed proximal and parallel to a shell-like hearing aid enclosure having sound inlets. The metal housing is closed at an end opposite the sound inlets by a printed circuit board (PCB) forming an acoustical seal for a back volume of the microphone. The PCB also carries substantially all the electronic components for the hearing aid thereon. The PCB has a ground plane in contact with the housing whereby the PCB also acts as an EMI shield. An electrical connection is formed in various ways between the back support plate and the PCB during assembly of the metal housing and components with the PCB. Mass production of disposable hearing aids with large diaphragms and relatively low noise levels is thus possible using this invention.

    摘要: A beam guide assembly for a flat panel display device includes a plurality of meshes arranged in a spaced parallel relationship. Insulative supports permanently retain the meshes in the spaced relationship. The supports preferably comprises glass rods or beads spaced along the length of the assembly with portions of the meshes embedded therein. The beads are transversely displaced to allow beads of adjacent assemblies to be interleaved in a common aligned column. The beam guide assemblies can readily be fabricated and assembled using automatic and mass production techniques.
