Hearing aid to be worn behind the ear

摘要

The invention is based on the object of developing a hearing aid to be worn behind the ear in such a manner that it is possible to standardise hearing aids of different dimensions. This object is achieved by the fact that the hearing aid housing is divided transversely to its longitudinal axis into a first housing section (12) of fixed dimensions and into a second housing section (13) of variable dimensions. These two housing sections are mechanically and electrically connected to one another. The first housing section preferably contains the microphone, the receiver and the amplifier circuit and the second housing section (13) contains a battery (21) for supplying the hearing aid circuit with power. The second housing section (13) exists in various dimensions so that, for example, a larger battery (31) or other components, for example a mounted circuit board (32) can be accommodated within the second housing section (30). The drawing shows a hearing aid divided into two housing sections (12, 13). <IMAGE>
