HEARING DEVICE TETHER WITH ACOUSTIC DECOUPLING SECTION Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC H04R1/10 

FIELD: electrical communication engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to acoustics, in particular to noise protection means. Hearing article comprises first and second hearing device, a tether having a first end attached to the first hearing device and a second end attached to a second hearing device. Tether includes a first acoustic decoupling section proximate the first end, a second acoustic decoupling section proximate the second end, and a substantially straight intermediate section between the first and second acoustic decoupling sections, the first and second acoustic decoupling sections comprising first and second predetermined shapes, wherein the tether has a solid cross-section, is non-metallic and does not include cores of metal wire. First and second elements that maintain the predetermined shape comprise a wave-shaped element. First and second elements that maintain the predetermined shape comprise an element with a zigzag shape or in the form of a spiral. First and second acoustic decoupling sections have a cross section that differs from the cross section of the straight intermediate section made of rubber. Tether is detachably attached to the first and second hearing devices.

EFFECT: technical result is higher efficiency of noise protection.
