The broken lines in the drawings illustrate portions of the connector for a respiratory system conduit which form no part of the claimed design. The inventors and applicant contemplate embodiments that claim the presently disclaimed subject matter.

The surface shading is an artefact of filing in the United States of America and does not necessarily form part of the claimed design. The inventors and applicant contemplate removal of a portion or all of the surface shading.

The references to “left”, “right”, “front”, “rear”, “top” and “bottom” in the figure descriptions are not meant to require certain in-use orientation; the connector for a respiratory system conduit according to the claimed design may be used on any orientation.
