Abstract:

A tray configured for packaging is provided. The tray may include a substantially planar portion and a curved perimeter portion extending from the substantially planar portion. One or more cutout portions may be defined in the substantially planar portion. The tray may also include a handle that may be grasped during insertion into, or removal from a rear cover of an accessory unit. In this regard, the substantially planar portion and the curved perimeter portion of the tray may support a recessed portion of the rear cover of the accessory unit when received therein. Thus, issues with respect to deformation of the recessed portion, which may be formed from a flexible material, may be avoided. The tray may be part of a packaging system that further includes a box and a lid.
