Inhaler Whistle or Flue Pipe?

Do any of you know of a type of resonant pipe or whistle that can be sounded on the draw breath (ie. whilst inhaling)? It could be a simple flue pipe with a fipple, which only sounds a single tone.

If you think this sounds ridiculous, check out this ingenious example of an instrument with blow and draw fippled pipes:

I'm interested to know if there are any other examples of inhaler pipes/whistles. In particular I want to understand where the fipple is placed and how it works to make the draw pipe speak.
