A method for producing a housing part of a hearing device. The housing part serves to receive electronic components of the hearing device in a housing interior. Fibers are used to build up a fiber skeleton for a wall of the housing part at least partially surrounding the housing interior. A mechanical property of the wall is varied in a predefined manner along a reference direction of the housing part by way of the fibers. The fiber skeleton is then infiltrated, at least over part of its longitudinal extent, with a matrix material. There is also described a housing part of a hearing device and a hearing device with a housing part formed with fibers.

A hearing aid contains a housing and, inserted in the housing, is a frame for receiving electrical or electronic assemblies. The assemblies received in the frame contains a transmitting and/or receiving unit for electro-magnetic waves. The hearing aid moreover has an antenna assigned to the transmitting and/or receiving unit, which antenna is configured as an integral part of the frame, as a stamped/bent part or as inlay part made of metal. The antenna contains two parts which are each configured as open loops with two ends, wherein the two loop-shaped parts of the antenna are electrically shorted to each other by a respective end.

Hearing aid with electronics frame and antenna integrated therein

A hearing aid includes a hearing aid housing and an antenna device constructed to receive and/or transmit electromagnetic waves having a predetermined wavelength lambda. The antenna device has a frame incorporated in the hearing aid housing for holding assemblies of the hearing aid and the frame has an electrically conductive structure being an integral part of the frame. A method for producing a hearing aid includes patterning a surface of the frame, applying an electrically conductive layer to the surface of the frame and incorporating the frame into the hearing aid housing.

A hydrophobic ABS plastics material is formed from an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) plastic feed stock and a silicone additive. The hydrophobic ABS plastics material is used to produce a casing material, and also an electrical device. The hydrophobic ABS plastics material is ideally suited for protecting sensitive electronic components from moisture via a casing.
