Abstract

Example aspects of a bicycle packaging and a method for assembling a bicycle packaging are disclosed. The bicycle packaging can comprise a first packaging body comprising a primary fastener and a secondary mating fastener; and a second packaging body comprising a secondary fastener and a primary mating fastener, the first packaging body and second packaging body defining a void, the primary fastener engaging the primary mating fastener, and the secondary fastener engaging the secondary mating fastener.

Claims (34)

1. A bicycle packaging comprising:

a first packaging body comprising a primary fastener and a secondary mating fastener;

a second packaging body comprising a secondary fastener and a primary mating fastener, the first packaging body and second packaging body defining a void, the primary fastener engaging the primary mating fastener, and the secondary fastener engaging the secondary mating fastener, wherein the first packaging body comprises a first top panel, a first bottom panel, a first side panel, and a first end panel assembly, and wherein the second packaging body comprises a second top panel, a second bottom panel, a second side panel, and a second end panel assembly; and

a wheel insert, the wheel insert comprising a first insert panel and a second insert panel, the first insert panel abutting one of the first side panel and second side panel, the second insert panel spaced from the one of the first side panel and second side panel to define a second void therebetween.

2. The bicycle packaging of claim 1 , wherein the primary fastener defines a tab.

3. The bicycle packaging of claim 2 , wherein the primary mating fastener defines a slot and the slot receives the tab.

4. The bicycle packaging of claim 1 , where the secondary mating fastener is adjacent to the primary fastener and the primary mating fastener is adjacent to the secondary fastener.

5. The bicycle packaging of claim 1 , wherein the first end panel assembly comprises a first end panel defining a first width, the second end panel assembly comprising a second end panel defining a second width, wherein the second width is less than the first width.

6. The bicycle packaging of claim 5 , wherein the first end panel assembly comprises a first flap extending from a first end of the first end panel and a second flap extending from an opposing second end of the first end panel, and wherein the second end panel assembly comprises a third flap extending from a first end of the second end panel and a fourth flap extending from an opposing second end of the second end panel.

7. The bicycle packaging of claim 1 , wherein a one of the first packaging body and the second packaging body comprises a connector strip coupled to another of the first packaging body and the second packaging body.

8. A bicycle packaging comprising:

a first packaging body comprising a first top panel, a first bottom panel, a first side panel, and a first end panel assembly, the first top panel comprising a primary tab and a secondary slot;

a second packaging body comprising a second top panel, a second bottom panel, a second side panel, and a second end panel assembly, the second top panel comprising a primary slot, the primary tab engaging the primary slot, the second side panel comprising a secondary tab, the secondary tab engaging the secondary slot; and

a wheel insert, the wheel insert comprising a first panel and a second panel, the first panel abutting a one of the first side panel and second side panel, the second panel spaced from the one of the first side panel and second side panel to define a void therebetween.

9. The bicycle packaging of claim 8 , wherein the first bottom panel comprises a second primary tab, and wherein the second bottom panel comprises a second primary slot engaging the second primary tab.

10. The bicycle packaging of claim 8 , wherein the first top panel comprises a third primary tab, and wherein the first end panel assembly comprises a third primary slot engaging the third primary tab.

11. The bicycle packaging of claim 8 , wherein the first end panel assembly comprises a first end panel defining a first width, the second end panel assembly comprises a second end panel defining a second width, and the second width is less than the first width.

12. The bicycle packaging of claim 8 , wherein the secondary slot is adjacent to the primary tab and the primary slot is adjacent to the secondary tab.

13. The bicycle packaging of claim 8 , wherein a one of the first packaging body and the second packaging body comprises a connector strip fastened to another of the first packaging body and the second packaging body.

14. A bicycle packaging comprising:

a first packaging body comprising a primary fastener and a secondary mating fastener; and

a second packaging body comprising a secondary fastener and a primary mating fastener, the first packaging body and second packaging body defining a void, the primary fastener engaging the primary mating fastener, and the secondary fastener engaging the secondary mating fastener;

wherein:

the first packaging body comprises a first top panel, a first bottom panel, a first side panel, and a first end panel assembly,

the second packaging body comprises a second top panel, a second bottom panel, a second side panel, and a second end panel assembly,

the first end panel assembly comprises a first end panel defining a first width, the second end panel assembly comprising a second end panel defining a second width,

the second width is less than the first width,

the first end panel assembly comprises a first flap extending from a first end of the first end panel and a second flap extending from an opposing second end of the first end panel, and

the second end panel assembly comprises a third flap extending from a first end of the second end panel and a fourth flap extending from an opposing second end of the second end panel.

15. The bicycle packaging of claim 14 , wherein the primary fastener defines a tab.

16. The bicycle packaging of claim 15 , wherein the primary mating fastener defines a slot and the slot receives the tab.

17. The bicycle packaging of claim 14 , where the secondary mating fastener is adjacent to the primary fastener and the primary mating fastener is adjacent to the secondary fastener.

18. The bicycle packaging of claim 14 , further comprising a wheel insert, the wheel insert comprising a first insert panel and a second insert panel, the first insert panel abutting one of the first side panel and second side panel, the second insert panel spaced from the one of the first side panel and second side panel to define a second void therebetween.

19. The bicycle packaging of claim 14 , wherein a one of the first packaging body and the second packaging body comprises a connector strip coupled to another of the first packaging body and the second packaging body.
