BEHIND-THE-EAR HOUSING FUNCTIONING AS A SWITCH

摘要

A housing (3) for electrical and/or electronic microdevices, in particular hearing aids (7), encompassing at least one switchable element or switching circuit system, is provided with a pressure-sensitive, bendable and/or elastic section (11). That section is functionally connected to the said switching element or circuit system in such fashion that applying pressure on the housing or bending or deforming the elastic section (11) triggers a switching operation of the switching element or circuit system.
