FIG. 1 is a top, front, and side perspective view of a breathing tube embodying our new design.

FIG. 2 is a front view thereof.

FIG. 3 is a rear view thereof.

FIG. 4 is a right side view thereof.

FIG. 5 is a left side view thereof.

FIG. 6 is a top view thereof.

FIG. 7 is a bottom view thereof; and,

FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of a portion of FIG. 4 taken at 8-8, showing a bead that is lined for the color blue with the bead being positioned between intervening portions of a wall of a conduit of the breathing tube.

The breathing tube assembly is shown with a symbolic break in its length. The appearance of any portion of the article between the break lines forms no part of the claimed design.

The drawing is lined for color. The color and shading of the bead is a blue color value in the L*a*b* color space of L =42 to 48; a =10 to 18; b =-69 to -53 according to color measurement standard ISO 11664-4:2008(E)/CIE S 014-4/E:2007.

The references to "left," "right," "front," "rear," "top," and "bottom" in the figure descriptions are not meant to require certain in-use orientation; the breathing tube according to the claim design may be used in any orientation.

The broken lines in the drawings depict portions of the breathing tube that form no part of the claimed design.
