UK Patent No. GB1405575.  Horse-powered car.

This really is putting the cart before the horse.   The horse pushes forward to reach its feed box (2) thus propelling the car, the speed of which can be adjusted by means of an accelerator which is connected to pneumatic cylinders (6) in the ends of the U-shaped member (4) to influence the thrust of the horse. The ignition switch can also be arranged to give a mild electric shock to the posterior of the horse when it is switched on to stimulate it into movement. The brake pedal is linked by cables to halter (18) around the neck of the horse.
UK Patent No. GB1251780. Practice golf tee.  

No more lost balls due to badly hit shots.  Use this golf tee which is equipped with photocells (7, 8) and which has a passage in its body (1) connected to an air supply whereby a pulse of air can dislodge the ball from the tee.  The photocells monitor the path of the club head.  If they detect that the player is about to miss-hit the ball a signal initiated at the control box (9) to send a puff of compressed air along the conduit and up the middle of the tee. This blows the ball off the tee so that the player misses it, and does not have to search for a lost ball.

UK Patent No. GB1439086. Large, luxury multi-bodied aircraft.

The tail fins of fuselages 1, 4 and 5 are retained and turbo fan engines mounted at the tails of fuselages 2 and 3 and . Fan wings are also fitted.    The aircraft is fitted with buoyancy tanks and can land on land or water.   For safety reasons it is designed to fly just 100 or 200 feet above the ocean surface.
