Heart-beat electronic simulator
First Claim
1. A heart-beat simulator comprising an astatic multivibrator with predetermined period and cycle ratio for providing a square wave output signal, a differentiating circuit having as its input the square wave output signal from said multivibrator for transducing said square wave input to an output signal comprising, substantially symmetrical periodic pulses decreasing from positive and negative peaks to zero, and a loudspeaker driven by the output signal from said differentiating circuit.

Abstract
An electronic device for simulating the human heart-beating noise comprises an astatic multivibrator, the output of which is a square wave voltage signal. This signal is given as an input to a differentiating circuit having its output connected to drive a loudspeaker diaphgram. The acoustic wave produced is similar to the human heart-beating noise.
