Embodiment Construction

[0156] The detailed description set forth below in connection with the accompanying drawings serves as a description of a number of different configurations. The detailed description includes specific details to provide a thorough understanding of various concepts. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that these concepts may be practiced without these specific details.

[0157] A hearing device may comprise a hearing aid adapted to improve or enhance a user's hearing capabilities by receiving an acoustic signal from the user's environment, generating a corresponding audio signal, possibly modifying the audio signal, and presenting the possibly modified audio signal as an audible signal provided to at least one ear of the user. "Hearing device" also refers to a device adapted to electronically receive an audio signal, possibly modify the audio signal, and provide the possibly modified audio signal as an audible signal to at least one ear of a user. The audi...

Abstract

The invention discloses a mounting assembly for a bone conduction hearing device. A mounting assembly for arranging a bone conducting hearing device (2) to a skin surface (12) over the skull (14) of auser is disclosed. The mounting assembly (44, 92) comprises an attachment element (8) configured to be attached to a corresponding vibrator attachment element of a vibrator assembly (6), the attachment element (8) and the vibrator attachment element being adapted to operationally couple with each other; a plate member (10) configured to be arranged over the skin surface (12); one or more removably arranged mounting structures (18, 20) arranged outside the skull (14) for attaching the mounting assembly (44, 92) to the skin surface (12) over the skull (14).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a mounting assembly for a bone conduction hearing device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a wearable bone conduction hearing aid system, but without an implantable part. Background technique [0002] Bone conduction hearing aid systems are based on the principle of bone conduction, in which the skull acts as a medium for transmitting sound vibrations to the inner ear. This can often include people with problems with the outer ear, middle ear, or both. [0003] Bone conduction hearing devices have a very important market position in the field of hearing devices or hearing aids. There are five main types of bone conduction devices: (1) external bone conduction devices, in which the vibrator is secured to the side of the head by a strap that wraps around the head; (2) bone-anchored hearing devices, in which screws are placed through the skin into the skull, with the vibrator transducer suspended from the sid...
