125 Hearing Device Having a Mechanical Display Element US12275541 2008-11-21 US20090129616A1 2009-05-21 Lilyana Joeng; Wee Haw Koo; Meng Kiang Lim; Poh Chye Lim
A hearing device for wearing in or on the ear and for outputting a sound to the ear includes an electronic unit and a display unit for displaying a state of the electronic unit and for easily detecting the state of a hearing device such as a hearing aid while using as little energy as possible. The display unit has a display element that can be moved mechanically, depending on the state of the electronic unit, into a position specific to the state. It is possible to use the display unit to display the switched-on state and the switched-off state of a hearing aid. In particular, it is advantageous to couple the display element mechanically to a battery compartment when the battery compartment is used to switch the hearing aid or the hearing device on and off. However, the display element can also be moved by magnetic or electrical forces.
126 Hearing Aid Momentary Switch Or Joystick As A Multifunction Acoustic Control US11622505 2007-01-12 US20080170731A1 2008-07-17 Tomasz Wojas
A hearing instrument uses a single momentary switch or joystick to toggle programmable functions or value for each function. The length of the user actuation, short or long, can determine the action for internal circuit programming. The function change can be used in a circular or cyclical way, and the value range of each function can be programmed by specialized computer software. The present invention can replace plurality of controls used historically with one single component, which is very critical in building small hearing aids. The smaller faceplate area allows for better miniaturization and easier access for hearing aid users.

128 Hearing device with program switch and programming socket US11502489 2006-08-10 US20070036380A1 2007-02-15 Holger Kral; Michael Sattler
The layout of a programmable hearing device and especially of a programmable hearing aid is to be simplified. To this end there is provision for a one-piece cover unit to cover both a program switch and also a programming socket. The cover unit has a locking element with which, in the closed state, it is held over the program switch and the programming socket. Furthermore the cover unit can be moved slightly in its closed state, so that the program switch is able to be actuated by the movement. This means that the cover unit serves not only to cover the program switch and the programming socket, but also to actuate the programming switch.

134 Electromechanical switch US09964940 2001-09-27 US06818845B2 2004-11-16 Paul Portmann
The switching element (1) of the switch per this invention is closely enveloped, at least in the area of its free end, by an elastic diaphragm (5) which also encloses, at a distance, the contact surfaces (2) facing the switching element (1) and which is tightly connected to the switch housing (4; 6). This tightly seals the contact region against the external environment of the switch and thus reliably prevents contamination and oxidation of the contact surfaces. As another advantageous feature, the number of switch components is thus reduced, a mechanical spring is not needed for retaining the switching element (1) in its engaged position, and the design permits miniaturization.
135 Hermetic sealed switch US10367065 2003-02-14 US20040159535A1 2004-08-19 Josef Wagner
An actuator body or actuator system (1) for electrical and electronic microdevices comprises at least two switch contacts (5, 7) which by way of a membrane (13) extending across at least one of said contacts can be mutually connected when the membrane is depressed for triggering a switching operation. In the actuating system described at least one of the contacts (5) is positioned in the area of the membrane perimeter and is connected via an electroconductive polymer (17) to a conductor strip (15) located on the inside surface of the membrane facing said contacts. The membrane with its conductor strip is suspended above the other contact (7) in such fashion that it and the conductor strip remain at a distance from that other contact when the system is not being operated. When depressed, the membrane can be deflected to said other contact so as to cause the conductor strip to touch that other contact, establishing the electrical connection between the two contacts (5, 7).
