Hearing device, particularly portable hearing aid, for supplying impaired hearing, and for use as behind-ear-hearing aid, has housing, sound inlet that penetrates housing and transmitter which is arranged for receiving sound at sound inlet

摘要

The hearing device has a housing (10), a sound inlet (11) that penetrates the housing and a transmitter (12) which is arranged for receiving the sound at the sound inlet. A cover (16) is arranged in or at the sound inlet for protecting the sound inlet or the transmitter from contaminants. The cover is movably designed, so that a pressure caries at the sound inlet by pressing a cover. A corresponding change in pressure is registered with the help of the transmitter and the evaluation switch for generating a control signal. An independent claim is included for a method for operating a hearing device.
