Packaging Tray with Interlocking Sidewalls

Abstract

A packaging tray configured to physically support an electronic device that includes a center panel, first and second opposing sidewalls, and first and second compartments. The center panel includes a first and second pairs of opposing fold edges, with the fold edges of the first and second pairs oriented substantially perpendicular to one another. The first opposing sidewall extends from a first fold edge, and the second opposing sidewall extends from a second fold edge, substantially perpendicular to the first opposing sidewall. A first compartment is defined in the first opposing sidewall and includes a first locking portion. A second compartment is defined in the second opposing sidewall and includes a second locking portion. The second locking portion is configured to engage the first locking portion to connect the first and second opposing sidewalls together. This provides enhanced structural integrity and allows for securing accessories.
