Abstract

1433554 Body-organ stimulators GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 12 June 1973 [7 July 1972] 27987/73 Addition to 1360066 Heading A5R [Also in Division H3] The subject-matter of this specification is similar to that of the main patent, but includes the modification that in the output circuit of the stimulator, two controllable devices are replaced by one controllable device and one unidirectionally conductive device shunted 'by a resistor through which the output capacitor is charged to its quiescent state.
