Molding
Hearing aid mold is an essential component for using behind-the-ear hearing aids.
Behind-the-ear hearing aids connect to your ear through an interface called a mold and direct the amplified sound from the hearing aid to your ears. The shape and size of these molds should be designed in such a way that it fits easily inside the earlobe and its use is simple and convenient for the user. Molds affect the sound quality, so the choice of hearing aid and mold should be based on the shape and type of hearing loss of the client, and it should be designed in such a way that it matches the type of amplification of the hearing aid and the condition of the client's hearing loss. The main purpose of the molds is to transmit sound into the ear canal, and its other purpose is to help keep the hearing aid in place behind the user's earlobe.
The mold is connected to the hearing aid behind the ear through the bulb. The proper length of the diameter pipe is very important for us.
If the length of the tube is short, it causes pressure on the hearing aid and pulls the hearing aid towards the front of your earlobe, and the user will have an unpleasant feeling from the hearing aid on the earlobe and the connection point of the hearing aid tube.
If the length of the mold tube is long, it causes the hearing aid to move on the earlobe and the possibility of the hearing aid falling off the earlobe increases.
The diameter of the tube of the hearing aid mold is selected based on the construction of the mold and the degree of hearing loss. The greater the hearing loss, the bigger the mold and the diameter of the tube. Therefore, choosing the appropriate mold and tube for the client's hearing loss condition is very important and fundamental in terms of satisfaction in the hearing aid user.
The soundproof mold is made for people who work in noisy environments and the noise is harmful and dangerous for their hearing.
