Abstract: A shoe machine having nozzles for applying adhesive progressively to the margin of a shoe bottom, in which the nozzles are moved heightwise to engage a guide of the nozzle with the edge of the shoe bottom maneuvered by an arrangement of piston and cylinder members, and a sensing device associated with a stop mechanism for control and guidance to enable the nozzles to follow the marginal contour of the shoe bottom to apply adhesive thereto, and thence to return the nozzles to their start position to begin another cycle.

Abstract: A resilient one piece sheet metal clip having a generally U-shape is provided for push-on mounting and suspension from an upstanding pinched weld joint. The clip comprises a pair of inwardly extending flanges for gripping the pinched weld joint and outwardly biased leg portions for receiving a C-shaped molding, one of said leg portions being of greater extent than the other for contacting the panel from which the pinched weld joint extends and holding the C-shaped molding in predetermined spaced relation with the panel when the molding and clip are assembled on the pinched weld.
