Abstract

In bone conduction auditory prostheses, a suspension of the electronic components relative to the vibrating mass is beneficial for a number of reasons. The suspension systems depicted also function as a seal, so as to prevent infiltration of direct, water, or other contaminants into the housing. The present technology utilizes a combination suspension and sealing system that seals the housing of an auditory prosthesis while still providing sufficient suspension functionality.
