A hollow extension tube or extension assembly aids in increasing the quantity of any inhaled or aerosolized substance delivered to a patient's lungs from an inhaler or source. The length of the extension tube reduces the velocity and increases the temperature of the aerosolized substance, easing inhalation. The interior surface of the hollow extension tube has anti-static properties which reduces the amount of aerosolized substance trapped by the interior surface of the hollow extension tube. The interior surface of the extension tube may be formed of cardboard.

A recovery system and method with repeating communication functionality includes a station configured to send a first message and at least a first remote transmitting unit responsive to the central station and configured to transmit a second message to a locating unit. At least a second remote transmitting unit includes a receiver which receives the second message, a controller configured to process the second message, and a transmitter for transmitting a third message to the locating unit.

Recovery system with repeating communication capabilities

An adaptive range vehicle recovery system including an adaptive range vehicle locating unit including a narrowband baseband generator for generating a narrowband signal, a wideband baseband generator for generating a wideband signal, a timing control circuit responsive to an activation signal to transmit, alternately, said narrowband signal at a first rate, and said wideband signal at a second rate and responsive to a track signal to transmit one of said wideband and narrowband signals at a third, different, rate; and also to an adaptive range vehicle recovery system including an adaptive range vehicle track unit including a data decoder including, a wideband decoder for detecting data from a wideband baseband signal, a narrowband decoder for detecting data from a narrowband baseband signal, a bandwidth detector responsive to a received signal to distinguish narrowband and wideband signals and an input switching circuit responsive to said bandwidth detector for directing the wideband signal to the wideband decoder and the narrowband signal to the narrowband decoder.

A method of checking messages from a network of communication sources includes initially testing the signal strength of a plurality of communication sources, storing the identity of the communication sources with the two strongest signals, and alternatively entering a sleep mode and a wake-up mode, the wake-up mode synchronized to the communication source with the strongest signal. The method further includes testing the signal strength of one additional communication source, switching synchronization to the additional communication source if said source presents a signal stronger than the signal of a stored communication source with the strongest signal, and replacing the identity of any stored communication source if an additional communication sources tested in sequence presents a signal stronger than the signal of said stored communication source.

Vehicle locating unit with improved power management method

A vehicle locating unit with improved power management. A receiver receives a signal from a network of communication sources. A signal strength monitoring subsystem determines which of the communication sources are transmitting the strongest signals. A power management subsystem is responsive to the signal strength monitoring subsystem and is configured to alternatively enter sleep and wake-up modes, synchronize the wake-up mode to the communication source transmitting the strongest signal, and test the signal strength of at least one additional communication source according to a predefined sequence.

A vehicle locating unit with a receiver for receiving a signal from a network of communication sources, a transponder activated when a communication source sends a message to the receiver, and a power supply regulating circuit for regulating a nominal input voltage and powering the receiver and the transponder. A protection circuit is responsive to an injected input voltage and configured to clamp the injected (high level) input voltage at a predetermined maximum voltage.
