Editor: hudong@气鸣乐器 says 乐器分类 5大类别之一。发声都以空气为激振动力;其中多数乐器以空气为原振动媒质──空气柱。本类乐器除了有传统分类中的管乐器,还包括簧风琴、手风琴、口琴等自由簧乐器以及一些特殊的发声器,如牛吼镖等。

So it looks like "aerophone" to me, rather than "woodwind."

"Musical instruments are classified in various ways, but the system devised in 1914 by Kurt Sachs and E. M. von Hornbostel has been accorded recognition by both anthropologists and musicologists because it is applicable not only to modern Western instruments but to primitive and exotic instruments as well. This system divides instruments into five main classes: idiophones, membranophones, aerophones, chordophones, and electrophones." [Columbia Encyclopedia]
