Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for multiple physical resource block (PRB) operations for narrowband (NB) systems, such as NB internet-of-things (IoT). In one aspect, a method is provided which may be performed by a wireless device such as a user equipment (UE), which may be an NB-IoT device. The method generally includes performing a cell search based on one or more signals received in an anchor RB within a set of RBs available for narrowband communications with a base station (BS); determining a location of at least one additional RB available for the narrowband communications with the BS based on an indication received in the anchor RB; and performing narrowband communications with the BS using at least one of: the anchor RB or the at least one additional resource block.

Described herein are units for transportation of cargo, and methods of using them. In some embodiments, the units are collapsible, stackable cargo units. In some embodiments, the cargo units include a generally rectangular base having a front, a rear and two sides, with forklift slots on its front, rear and each side. The cargo units may further include front and rear walls extending upward from the base. The cargo units may further include first and second side walls extending upward from the base between the front and rear walls. The first side wall may have a length greater than the second side wall. The cargo units may further include an integrated lid hingedly attached to one or more of the front, rear, and side walls.

Disclosed are systems, apparatus and methods for transporting a palletized stack of bottles or other similar bulk-produced containers using a unique pallet base and a unique set of side panels that may be engaged with the base and with each other in order to protect the stacks of bottles on the pallet base during shipping and transport. Embodiments of the invention dampen vibrations, protect the bottles from exterior contaminants, and allow the bottles to be viewed from the outside. Embodiments of the invention also provide reusable pallet systems that are easy to assemble and disassemble, and ship back for reuse.

An accessory for use with a portable container includes a jacket configured to extend around at least a portion of the sidewall of the container, the jacket including a plurality of modular sections formed separately and connected together around the at least a portion of the sidewall of the container. The modular sections include a first modular section having extending around a first portion of the sidewall of the container, a second modular section connected to the first modular section and extending around a second portion of the sidewall of the container, and at least one additional modular section extending around a third portion of the sidewall of the container. The first and second modular sections have different structural configurations. The accessory also includes a first connection member connected to the jacket and configured to support the jacket in connection with the container.

This nest comprises a plurality of breakable connecting bridges, a plurality of flanges arranged in a predetermined pattern and configured to form the flanges of the medical containers, the flanges being connected to the breakable connecting bridges, and a supporting structure attached to the breakable connecting bridges so as to support the flanges. The flanges are integrally formed with the breakable connecting bridges and the supporting structure.

A collapsible container which is made from at least five interconnected panels each of which is square with projections on each side which have passages through which hinge pins are passed to secure the panels together.

The reusable food transportation device, or food transportation system, includes a single hub that connects to a collection of containers. The hub is circular and the food containers are angular wedges projecting horizontally outward from the hub. Each food container includes a vessel and a lid. During transportation the hub, formed from an upper section and a lower section, compresses each lid against its respective vessel to prevent spillage of the food contained within. When the device arrives at its destination the upper section and the lower section of the hub are separated from each other. This removes the compressive force holding the lid and the vessel in place. The user may then remove the containers as they see fit.

A sub unit and a packaging system including a plurality of sub units. The sub unit is formed with a tapered body having sidewalls towards a narrow end from a first opposing or outer surface at an end opposite the narrow end. The packaging system includes a plurality of sub units, wherein the sub units are configured to be positioned so that the first opposing surfaces form an outside of the packaging system.

Implementations disclosed and claimed herein provide a customized storage system. In one implementation, a folding crate movable between a storage position and a collapsed position is provided. The crate may include a first frame end of a crate having a first frame, a second frame end having a second frame disposed opposite the first frame, and a base panel fixed to and extending between the second frame. The crate may include swinging panels that are releasably secured to the second frame when the crate is in a storage position and rotatable about a swinging axis at the first frame to move the crate into a collapsed position. The crate may also include folding panels pivotally mounted to the first frame and the second frame that are foldable along a folding axis when the crate moves into the collapsed position.
