Abstract:
An adaptable/adjustable hearing device charging port (10) for a hearing device charger (7) that can adapt/adjust in size to accommodate and hold hearing devices (2) of different sizes and/or shapes. The adjustable hearing device charging port (10) adapts elastically so that hearing devices (2) of different sizes can be inserted into the hearing device charging port (10) and can be hold in a charging position in the hearing device charger (7), in which charging position hearing device charging contacts (6) of the hearing device (2) are electrically contacted with charger contacts (8) in the hearing device charger (7).
Abstract:
The present invention proposes a sound tube (3) for an earpiece (1), wherein a first section (4) of an inner surface of the sound tube (3) has a structured surface, in particular a textural pattern forming a relief comprising convexities (13) and/or concavities (11). Alternatively or additionally, the sound tube (3) features a radially extending, circumferential flange (8), annular lip (8′) or collar at an outer surface of the sound tube (3). The present invention is further directed to a sound tube arrangement comprising two of the proposed sound tubes integrally formed in one piece and to an earpiece (1) with such a sound tube (3) or such a sound tube arrangement as well as to a hearing device with such an earpiece (1).
Abstract:
A hearing device plug connector may include a first connector component and a second connector component, wherein the hearing device plug connector includes a latching mechanism for securing the first connector component and the second connector component against unintended disconnection, wherein the latching mechanism includes a catch and a complementary latch component which are in latching engagement when the first connector component and the second connector component are connected, wherein the catch is moveable against a spring force from a latching position into a release position when connecting or disconnecting the first connector component and the second connector component, and wherein in the latching position the catch can engage with the complementary latch component and in the release position the catch can disengage from the complementary latch component. The hearing device plug connector may further include a sealing element for providing a seal between the first and second connector components.

Abstract:
An ear tip is described for retaining a hearing device or a hearing device part in an ear canal of a user wearing the hearing device or the hearing device part. The ear tip includes a sealing element with a sound channel providing for a sound path between a sound inlet opening for receiving an acoustic signal from an output unit of the hearing device or the hearing device part and a sound outlet opening for releasing the acoustic signal to the ear canal of the user wearing the hearing device or the hearing device part, and a first filtering element arranged in the sound channel between the sound inlet opening and the sound outlet opening.
