Abstract: Abstract Shoe Support A shoe support comprises toe support means (34) and heel support means (30), the toe support means being mounted for adjusting movement relative to the heel support means in directions extending lengthwise, widthwise and heigthwise of the bottom of a shoe supported by the shoe support.  The heel support means (30) comprises a last pin (32') mounted for limited rocking movement abut an axis (412) extending lengthwise of the shoe bottom, the last pin being supported on a support member (420) which is angularly displaceable on a support rod (28), the arrangement being such that the rocking axis (412) of the last pin (32') can be adjusted angularly on the support rod, thus to locate said axis (412) substantially in the heel-to-toe plane of the shoe, as determined by the position of the toe support means (34).  In this way, the shoe is supported in a more stable manner for operations to be performed thereon, e.g. a heel seat lasting operation.

Abstract: AIRPLANE TAKE-OFF SYSTEM                 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE           This invention provides a system for launching aircraft into free flight regime regardless of runway conditions, wherein a sled of the self-powered air cushion vehicle type is configured in plan form so as to accept in temporarily locked relation thereupon and in combination therewith an airplane in such manner that a successful take-off run in mutually aerodynamically com-patible regime may be accomplished in spite of surface problems with the runway.  Upon attainment of airborne speed, under control of the pilot the aircraft lifts off the sled into full free flight; and thus is airborne albeit the runway is at the time unusable by conventional wheel-geared aircraft; for example, as the result of a previous bombing attack on the runway by enemy aircraft.  The sled incorporates self-propelling and directional guidance means for retrieval/reuse purposes, as well as a take-off abort control system.

Abstract: TITLE                 RETRACTABLE TRAFFIC DELINEATOR                            INVENTOR                      Ronald A. W. Clarke ABSTRACT     A traffic delineator is capable of being depressed so that its upstanding light reflective surface is depressed into a plane coincident with, or subterranean with that of the surrounding pavement, when the delineator is located in a highway, or on any other over travelling vehicle surface.  The depression of the light reflective surface of the retractable delineator is activated either by horizontal or vertical thrust.  Specifically when a combination of both is experienced as in the case of the movement of vehicular traffic over the delineator or of grading instruments or equipment such as snow ploughs and the like which are used for cleaning the surface of the travelled highway during winter conditions.  After the travelling vehicle has passed, the light reflecting surface, as a result of biasing action within the delineator, relocates the light reflective surface again into an elevation above the surface of the road.
