Aircraft engine shipping container with adjustable bracket supports

A shipping container for an engine comprising:

• a base having a substantially planar upper surface,
• a first bracket comprising a member having a lower portion supporting said bracket on said base and an upper portion substantially parallel to said lower portion and means attaching said first bracket to said base in load supporting relationship therewith for movement of said bracket upon said base in at least one longitudinal direction with respect to said base and for fixing said bracket to said base in selected relative positions of said movement,
• a support member having a load supporting portion moveably supporting said support member on and in load transmitting relationship with said upper portion of said first bracket,
• means attaching said support member to said first bracket for movement of said support member along said upper portion of said first bracket in a direction transverse to said at least one longitudinal direction, and for affixing said support member to said first bracket in selected relative positions of the latter said movement of said support member with respect to said first bracket,
• said support member further comprising a vertically extending section extending upward from said load supporting portion of said support member,
• a second bracket member comprising a leg section extending parallel to said vertically extending section of said support member and moveable vertically with respect to said vertically extending section of said support member, means for affixing said leg section to said vertically extending support member section at selected vertical positions of said second bracket member relative to said support member,
• a third bracket member having an engine supporting portion formed therein, and a section depending downwardly from said engine supporting portion,
• the latter said section being pivotally supported in load transmitting relationship on said leg section of said second bracket member for pivotal movement of said third bracket member relative said second bracket member and means for securing said third bracket member in a selected position of said relative pivotal movement.
