CA 2295750

The hearing aid system includes a hearing aid case which is designed to be positioned behind the ear of a user, a tube for conducting sound from the case to the ear canal of the user, and an eartip for anchoring the end of the tube within the ear canal of the user. The tube is formed in a preformed shape of a material with sufficient rigidity to support the hearing aid in a proper position on the user's ear. The eartip may be one of several different designs which secures an end of the tube in place in the ear canal in a comfortable manner without the need for an expensive custom made ear mold and without complete occlusion of the ear canal. A combination of the light weight and small size of the case, the rigidity of the preformed tube, and one of the eartips for anchoring the tube in the ear canal allow the system to be held in place securely without the need for either an inflexible and aesthetically unpleasing ear hook or an expensive custom made ear mold.

L'invention concerne un système de prothèse auditive comprenant un boîtier de prothèse auditive conçu pour être placé derrière l'oreille de l'utilisateur, un tube permettant de conduire le son du boîtier au canal auditif de l'utilisateur et un embout auriculaire permettant de fixer l'extrémité du tube à l'intérieur du canal auditif de l'utilisateur. Le tube est préformé dans un matériau présentant une rigidité suffisante pour maintenir la prothèse auditive dans une position adéquate sur l'oreille de l'utilisateur. L'embout est peut être sélectionné parmi différents modèles permettant de fixer une extrémité du tube en place dans le canal auditif de manière confortable, sans nécessiter un moulage coûteux et sans réaliser une occlusion complète du canal auditif. Un boîtier combinant légèreté et petite dimension, la rigidité du tube préformé et un des embouts pour la fixation du tube dans le canal auditif permettent de maintenir le système de manière sûre, et rendent inutile le recours à un crochet inesthétique ou à un coûteux moulage auriculaire.
