Abstract

Bei einem Gehäuse, geeignet für elektronische Kleinstgeräte, wie Hörgeräte, beispielsweise für die Verwendung in Umgebung mit erhöhter Luftfeuchtigkeit bzw. Luftfeuchte wird vorgeschlagen mindestens einen Wandbereich des Gehäuses porös bzw. perforiert auszubilden. Aussen am Gehäuse wird auf diesem Wandbereich (1) ein Vlies (7) angeordnet, welches Vlies (7) eine feinere Porosität bzw. Poren mit kleinerem Durchmesser aufweist, als die Spalten bzw. Poren im Wandbereich (1) des Gehäuses. Beim Wandbereich kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Gehäusedeckel (1) handeln, welcher an seiner äusseren Oberfläche ein Vlies (7) aufweist. Beim Vlies handelt es sich vorzugsweise um ein "Non-woven", bestehend aus Polymerfasern, wie insbesondere Polyesterfasern. Beim Gehäusedeckel (1) kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Deckel eines Batteriefaches handeln.

Figure 00000001
In the case of a housing suitable for small electronic devices, such as hearing aids, for example for use in environments with increased air humidity or air humidity, it is proposed to make at least one wall area of the housing porous or perforated. On the outside of the housing, a fleece (7) is arranged on this wall area (1), which fleece (7) has a finer porosity or pores with a smaller diameter than the gaps or pores in the wall area (1) of the housing. The wall area can be, for example, a housing cover (1) which has a fleece (7) on its outer surface. The fleece is preferably a "non-woven" consisting of polymer fibers, such as in particular polyester fibers. The housing cover (1) can, for example, be a cover of a battery compartment.
