An apparatus for storing and dispensing small batteries. The apparatus eases the process of inserting such batteries into small electrical devices. The apparatus includes a plurality of handles, a base member removably attached to each of the handles, and a cover to envelop the plurality of handles and the cover. A small battery is removably attached to the end of each handle, allowing the use of the handle for assisting with the insertion of the battery into a small battery well. The plurality of the handles are stored in a 'matchbook' type package, allowing the removal of one handle and continued storage of the remainder.

Battery holder

An improved nubbin and acoustic damper for the elimination or production of resonance in the sound transmission tubing of a hearing aid. The nubbin and nubbin sound conduit include a right angle corner. The damper comprises a plug having three body portions: a plug portion that is insertable into the conduit, a longer diameter block attached to the plug portion and forming a shoulder therewith that limits movement of the damper into the nubbin, and a plate attached to the block and being of greater diameter than the block. The damper has parallel grooves for sound transmission in its outer surface, with the grooves longitudinally and continuously through the plug portion, block and plate.

Hearing aid nubbin and acoustic damper

A combined package and carrier for a hearing aid battery adapted to securely hold and uniquely position the battery within the holder and the hearing aid and yet provide as small as possible a package. A carrier of molded plastic and functioning as a handle to insert and withdraw the battery from the hearing aid.
