Anatomy

• The vertebrate trachea, also known as the "wind pipe", the tube present in the tetrapod connecting the pharynx or larynx to the lungs, allows the respiratory (most frequent) airways
• Invertebrate trachea, the open breathing system used by terrestrial arthropods to transport metabolic gas to and from the network
• Siphon (mollusc), a tubular structure through which water or air can flow for one or more purposes such as locution, feeding, respiration, and reproduction
• Siphon (anatomical insects), tubular organs of the respiratory system of some time-consuming insects under water, which serve as respiratory tubes

Medical applications

• Anesthesia breathing circuit, a respiratory hose system that can be connected to a mask, laryngeal mask or tracheal tube to support anesthesia
• Anesthesia machine, machine that can be connected to a mask, larynx airway mask or tracheal tube to support anesthesia administration
• Mask pouch valve, tool that can be connected to a mask, air duct laryngeal mask or tracheal tube to mechanically move air that can breathe in and out of the lungs
• Laryngeal mask airway, supraglottic airway device used in anesthesia and in emergency medicine for airway management
• Medical ventilator, machine that can be connected to a mask, air duct mask larynx or tracheal tube to mechanically move air that can breathe in and out of the lungs
• Nasal kanula, a lightweight tube that at one end is divided into two branches placed in the nostrils to provide additional oxygen or air flow
• Tracheal tubes, tools inserted into the trachea to form and maintain the airway

Underwater apps

• Snorkel, J-shaped rubber or plastic tube equipped with a funnel at the lower end, is used to breathe air from above the water surface when the mouth and nose of the user is submerged
• Respiratory tube (breathing apparatus), flexible hose in scuba set or other breathing set
• The surface-supplied dives, a device used for connecting surface-supplied dives to long-haul breathing supplies maintained on submarine or dive boats, are referred to as "the umbilical cord"
• Snuba, the underwater breathing system in which the respiratory gas is supplied through the long tube of the tank on the raft pontoon on the water surface

Flight and space apps

• Primary Life Support System (PLSS), a machine that provides respiratory gas, removes carbon dioxide and water inhaled, regulates atmospheric pressure, and monitors certain physiological parameters in a space suit

Military and industrial applications

• Self-help breathing apparatus (SCBA), a device used by rescue workers, firefighters, and others to provide air breathing in an IDLH atmosphere (Danger Soon Towards Lives and Health)
• Gas masks, tools designed to be applied over face to protect the wearer from inhaling pollutants in air and poison gas
• Respirator, a device designed to protect the wearer from inhaling dust, smoke, vapors, and/or hazardous gases
