A personal hearing device with an outer housing and a sound path with a length of 1-24 mm, a diameter of 0.5-6 mm, a roll of frequency of at least 500 Hz and with a valve configured to open and close the sound path. The sound path has suitable acoustical properties to act as a sound passage for open/closed hearing aids or hearables. The valve is selected to have a small influence on the acoustical properties of the remaining portions of the sound path.

Personal hearing device

A sound channel with a side opening which may be opened or closed by an electromagnetic actuator. The sound channel may remain open and may thus be used as a spout of a sound generator for e.g. a hearing aid, where the side opening may be used as a vent.

Sound channel element with a valve and a transducer with the sound channel element

A sound channel with a valve positioned in a sound channel, the valve based on an electro-magnetic positioned in a housing positioned in the sound channel without sound travelling through the housing. The valve may be used in hearing devices.
