    摘要: A voltage supply for an electronic device, such as a hearing aid instrument, to be worn on the body of a user. The voltage supply has a charge pump for converting a battery voltage by a conversion factor to an intermediate voltage. The charge pump can be changed over between at least two stages of the conversion factor. The voltage supply furthermore has a voltage regulator for reducing the intermediate voltage to an output voltage of a predefined setpoint value and a controller for reversibly changing over the charge pump between the stages of the conversion factor. The controller is configured to actuate the charge pump in accordance with a manipulated variable of the voltage regulator.

    摘要: A method for operating a hearing aid which has a vent and the vent has a controllable closure for opening and closing the vent. The opening and closing of the vent is linked via a control rule to an environmental parameter, wherein the vent is controlled depending on the environmental parameter. The environmental parameter is ascertained and the vent is opened or closed in accordance with the control rule depending on the environmental parameter. The control rule is configured user-specifically. There are also described a corresponding hearing aid and a computer program product.

    摘要: A hearing device, in particular an in-the-ear hearing device, has a housing shell which encloses an electronics chamber like a cup. A cover plate is connected to the housing shell to terminate the electronics chamber. An electronics frame protrudes from the cover plate into the electronics chamber and by which an electric and/or an electronic component of the hearing device is reversibly mounted at least in directions parallel to the cover plate. At least one frame lock is reversibly coupled to the electronics frame, by which the electrical and/or electronic component is fixed on the electronics frame in a direction perpendicular to the cover plate.

    摘要: The invention relates to a system (1) for operating a hearing apparatus (2). The system (1) here has a software application (4), which is installed executably on a portable device (6) and forms therewith a remote configuration device for the hearing apparatus (2). The system (1) furthermore has an electronic unit (8) adapted for short-range communication with the portable device (6). The electronic unit (8) in turn has a user input interface (10) and is adapted to send a signal (TS) to the portable device (6) in response to a user input. By means of the software application (4) or an additional software module (12), the portable device (6) is adapted to set at least one setting, which relates to a communication path of the portable device (6) to the hearing apparatus (2), to a predetermined value, and/or to carry out activation of the software application (4), in response to reception of the signal (TS).

    摘要: A method operates a hearing aid system having a hearing instrument. An electro-acoustic input transducer of the hearing instrument generates an input signal from an acoustic signal from the environment, and an output signal is generated from the input signal by a signal processor. An output acoustic signal is generated from the output signal by an electro-acoustic output transducer of the hearing instrument. For at least one sub-process of the signal processing an artificial neural network is used which is implemented in the hearing instrument. A topology of the artificial neural network is defined and/or weights between individual neurons of the artificial neural network are selected according to an operation to be performed in the sub-process and/or according to an ambient situation and/or according to a user input by a user of the hearing aid system.

    摘要: A hearing device, especially a hearing aid device, has a support frame which is enclosed by a housing. The housing has an upper housing shell and a lower housing shell, which are joined together at a circumferential edge and overlap to form a labyrinth seal. The support frame has an outwardly directed protrusion, which engages with the labyrinth seal.

    摘要: A method for operating a binaural hearing aid system includes receiving an acoustic audio signal originating from an acoustic audio source and receiving an electronic audio signal streamed from an electronic audio source and based on the acoustic audio signal of the acoustic audio source. At least in an acoustic operating mode, the acoustic audio signal and the electronic audio signal are jointly processed and an output signal having a directional effect is generated from the two audio signals. The location of the acoustic audio source is located and the directional effect is generated on the basis of the acoustic audio signal. A good spatial hearing perception is thus generated. A hearing aid system for carrying out the method is also provided.
