Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1758427A2] The hearing aid has a shell that is inserted into an auditory canal, and a flexible skeleton (2), where the shell is manufactured through a rapid shell manufacturing-technology. Electronic components e.g. earpiece (3), signal processing circuit (4), battery (6) and telephone coil, are fastened to the skeleton. The skeleton with the electronic components forms a module that is removed as a whole from the shell and/or installed in the shell.
