Abstract
A hearing device has a printed circuit board with two carrier segments, which respectively each have a carrier layer to which a conductor structure adheres, and also with a connecting segment that connects the two carrier segments to each other. The connecting segment is configured so as to be bendable and rotatable.
Claims14
A hearing device, comprising:
- a printed circuit board having two carrier segments and a connecting segment connecting said two carrier segments to each other, each of said carrier segments having a carrier layer and a conductor structure adhering to said carrier layer, said connecting segment configured so that said connecting segment may be bent and rotated.
A hearing device batch, comprising:
- a plurality of hearing devices, each of said hearing devices having a printed circuit board with two carrier segments and a connecting segment connecting said two carrier segments to each other, each of said carrier segments having a carrier layer and a conductor structure adhering to said carrier layer, said connecting segment configured so that said connecting segment may be bent and rotated;
- and
- each of said hearing devices configured as a custom-made hearing device having a custom made housing with an individually configured inner space, as a result of which said custom made housing of each of said hearing devices are distinct from one another with regard to a configuration;
- said circuit board is configured as a standardized printed circuit board;
- and
- said connecting segment of each of said hearing devices is individually bent and/or individually twisted prior to inserting said printed circuit board into said custom-made housing, so that said printed circuit board is individually adapted to said individually configured inner space.
3 more elements
A method for manufacturing a hearing device, which comprises the steps of:
- providing a housing;
- providing a printed circuit board with two carrier segments that each respectively have a carrier layer and a conductor structure adhering to the carrier layer, and also with a connecting segment that connects the two carrier segments, the printed circuit board is prefabricated and the connecting segment is bent and/or twisted before inserting the printed circuit board into the housing.
