Description

FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a pair of hollow fiber membrane module joints, showing my new design;

FIG. 2 is a rear elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a bottom plan view thereof;

FIG. 5 is right side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a left side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 7 is a perspective view thereof;

FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line A-A in FIG. 3; and,

FIG. 9 is a reference view showing the pair of hollow fiber membrane module joints of my new design in use.

The parts shown as broken lines in the various views in the figures form no part of the claimed design. Lines consisting of alternating long and short dashes in the figures indicate lines dividing my inventive design which is claimed herein from other parts which are not claimed. The reference view FIG. 9 shows the hollow fiber membrane module of my new design in an environment in which the hollow fiber membrane module may be used, and is for illustrative purposes only.

Claims

I claim the ornamental design for a pair of hollow fiber membrane module joints, as shown and described.
