Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A bone conduction hearing aid device comprising a vibrator configured to vibrate in response to sound signals received by the device. The device further comprises a housing mass forming a housing for one or more operational components of the device, wherein the housing mass is attached to the vibrator so as to move in response to the vibration. The device also comprises a coupling configured to attach the device to a recipient so as to deliver the generated mechanical to the recipient's skull.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A bone conduction device comprising: a vibrator configured to vibrate in response to sound signals received by the device; a housing mass comprising a housing for one or more operational components of the device integrated with a vibrator mass, wherein the housing mass is attached to the vibrator so as to move along with the vibrator in response to the vibration to generate an output mechanical force representative of the sound signals; a coupling config…
