Abstract:

An assistive hearing device having a sound entrance aperture on a first side, the sound entrance aperture placed against a voice emitting speaker (or receiver) of the telephone, a sound egress aperture on a second side opposite the first side, and the sound egress aperture located within closer proximity to a hearing device relative to the sound entrance aperture and the speaker to facilitate transmission of sound from the speaker to the hearing device located nearby is provided. The assistive hearing device includes a hollow interior, which connects the sound entrance and sound egress apertures, and allows sound waves entering the sound entrance aperture to travel through the hollow interior and exit the sound egress aperture. The sound entrance aperture of the assistive hearing device surrounds the speaker of the mobile device to capture sound waves transmitted from the speaker. The transmitted sound waves enter the sound entrance aperture, traverse through the hollow interior of the assistive hearing device and exit the sound egress aperture, which is located within closer proximity to the hearing device microphone relative to the sound entrance aperture and to the telephone speaker.
