    Abstract: A method for the identification of a receiver belonging to one of a plurality of receiver types in a hearing aid system includes supplying an electrical input signal to the receiver for sound output. The input signal is a primary signal, and a secondary signal that depends on the input signal is generated on the basis of the sound output. The secondary signal is captured by a sensor which generates an electrical sensor signal depending on the secondary signal. A phase measurement is furthermore carried out by determining a phase difference between the input signal and the sensor signal. The receiver is then identified by assigning the receiver to one of the plurality of receiver types on the basis of the phase difference. A corresponding hearing aid system and an receiver set are also provided.

    Abstract: A hearing aid contains an ear insert which has an earpiece and a connection part which is connected to a receiver. The earpiece and the connection part each has a plug connector and are connected together by the plug connectors. One plug connector is a connection piece which extends in an axial direction along a longitudinal axis and has a thickened portion in the radial direction, and the other plug connector engages behind the thickened portion in order to axially fix the earpiece to the connection part. The thickened portion has an undercut and forms a retaining surface which runs into the thickened portion in a wedged manner. In this manner, the earpiece is attached to the connection part in a particularly secured manner.
