Switching system for current-switching transistor multivibrator

Claim 1

IN A CURRENT-SWITCHING TRANSISTOR MULTIVIBRATOR COMPRISING FIRST AND SECOND TRANSISTORS EACH HAVING AN EMITTER, A COLLECTOR AND A BASE, A CONSTANT-CURRENT SOURCE EXHIBITING A GIVEN RESISTANCE BETWEEN ITS TWO TERMINALS AND HAVING ONE OF SAID TERMINALS CONNECTED TO A POINT AT REFERENCE POTENTIAL AND THE OTHER OF SAID TERMINALS CONNECTED TO SAID EMITTERS OF BOTH OF SAID TRANSISTORS, AND MEANS FOR MAINTAINING ONE OF SAID TRANSISTORS SUBSTANTIALLY NON-CONDUCTIVE WHILE THE CURRENT FROM SAID CONSTANT-CURRENT SOURCE FLOWS INTO SAID EMITTER OF THE OTHER OF SAID TRANSISTOR; A SWITCHING SYSTEM ACTUATABLE TO TRANSFER THE FLOW OF SAID CURRENT FROM SAID EMITTER OF SAID OTHER TRANSISTOR TO SAID EMITTER OF SAID ONE TRANSISTOR, SAID SYSTEM COMPRISING FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD SWITCHING MEANS EACH HAVING TWO TERMINALS AND EACH CONTROLLABLE TO ESTABLISH BETWEEN SAID TERMINALS AN ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE PATH, MEANS CONNECTING ONE OF SAID TERMINALS OF SAID FIRST SWITCHING MEANS TO SAID EMITTERS OF BOTH OF SAID TRANSISTORS, SAID CONNECTING MEANS HAVING A RESISTANCE SMALLER THAN SAID GIVEN RESISTANCE OF SAID CONSTANTCURRENT SOURCE, MEANS CONNECTING THE OTHER OF SAID TERMINALS OF SAID FIRST SWITCHING MEANS TO ONE OF SAID TERMINALS OF EACH OF SAID SECOND AND THIRD SWITCHING MEANS, MEANS CONNECTING THE OTHER OF SAID TERMINALS OF SAID SECOND SWITCHING MEANS TO COLLECTOR OF SAID ONE TRANSISTOR, AND MEANS CONNECTING THE OTHER OF SAID TERMINALS OF SAID THIRD SWITCHING MEANS TO SAID COLLECTOR OF SAID OTHER TRANSISTOR.
