UNIVERSAL ADAPTER FOR HEARING AIDS AND EARPHONES

摘要

The invention relates to the field of hearing aids and earphones. More precisely, the invention relates to a universal adapter for in-the-ear hearing aids and earphones. The universal adapter serves to introduce the sound of a hearing aid or an earphone in the auditory canal, wherein the adapter has trapezoidal hollow segments (5) which are arranged separately from one another along a centrally arranged locking nipple (2) with the radial side walls (15) thereof, said radial side walls decreasing from the dorsal to the proximal side and said locking nipple serving to receive a sound output connector of the hearing aid. By way of the proximal ends (14) of the abutment areas (1), the hollow segments (5) are connected to a proximal end (6) of the locking nipple (2). The adapter has the form of a truncated ellipsoid body. It independently adapts itself to the form of the auditory canal.
