Constrained and repositionable percussive massage device tool and tool receiver

1. A percussive massaging device, comprising:

a tool receiver for receiving a massage tool therein, the tool receiver including a piston for providing percussive action to the massage tool; and

the massage tool, including a hollow attachment post at a first end thereof for insertion into the tool receiver and selectively attaching to the tool receiver and engaging with the piston, wherein the tool receiver includes multiple keyways and the hollow attachment post includes multiple keys for engaging with at least some of the keyways to secure the massage tool to the tool receiver and engage with the piston to facilitate the piston providing percussive action along a longitudinal axis of the hollow attachment post, and further wherein the massage tool, including hollow attachment post, is removable from the tool receiver;

the massage tool further including at least one interchangeable tool head tip attached to at least one second end of the hollow attachment post, the at least one interchangeable tool head tip being removable from the massage tool, wherein the massage tool includes an adjustment means for adjusting a hardness of each at least one interchangeable tool head tip.

2. The percussive massaging device of claim 1 , further including an additional attachment mechanism for further securing the hollow attachment post to the tool receiver.

3. The percussive massaging device of claim 2 , wherein the additional attachment mechanism is a press-fit seal.

4. The percussive massaging device of claim 3 , wherein the press-fit seal is elastomeric.

5. The percussive massaging device of claim 4 , wherein the press-fit seal further includes a fitting component embedded therein.

6. The percussive massaging device of claim 5 , wherein the fitting component has a toric shape.

7. The percussive massaging device of claim 2 , wherein the additional attachment mechanism is a magnetic component.

8. The percussive massaging device of claim 7 , wherein the magnetic component includes a magnet located in the tool receiver and an insert formed of magnetically attracted material located on the hollow attachment post.

9. The percussive massaging device of claim 1 , wherein the massage tool further includes a tool head selected from the group consisting of a non-rotatable tip tool head and a rotatable tip tool head capable of being rotated to re-orient the tip.

10. The percussive massaging device of claim 9 , wherein the tool head includes a wheel which is mounted between opposing fork ends of the hollow attachment post.

11. The percussive massaging device of claim 9 , wherein the tool receiver includes four keyways and the hollow attachment post includes two keys.

12. The percussive massaging device of claim 11 , wherein the tool receiver is approximately circular in shape and the four keyways are located at approximately 3, 6, 9 and 12 o-clock around the perimeter of the tool receiver.

13. The percussive massaging device of claim 11 , wherein the hollow attachment post is approximately circular in shape and the two keys are located on diametrically opposite sides of a perimeter of the hollow attachment post.

14. The percussive massaging device of claim 13 , wherein the tool head is aligned in one of a vertical and horizontal alignment in accordance with alignment of the two keys with a first and second pair of keyways.

15. The percussive massaging device of claim 9 , wherein the tool head includes a sphere which is rotatably mounted within a cup base, the cup base being mounted to the hollow attachment post.

16. The percussive massaging device of claim 15 , wherein the tool head further includes a removable ring connected to the cup base for further securing the rotatably mounted sphere.

17. A percussive massaging device, comprising:

a tool receiver for receiving a massage tool therein, the tool receiver including a piston for providing percussive action to the massage tool; and

the massage tool, including a hollow attachment post at a first end thereof for insertion into the tool receiver and engaging with the piston to facilitate the piston providing percussive action along a longitudinal axis of the hollow attachment post, the hollow attachment post selectively attaching to the tool receiver via a magnetic mechanism, wherein the magnetic mechanism includes a magnet located in the tool receiver and an insert formed of magnetically attracted material located on the hollow attachment post;

the massage tool further comprising at least one interchangeable tool head tip attached to at least one second end of the hollow attachment post, the at least one interchangeable tool head tip being removable from the massage tool, wherein the massage tool includes an adjustment means for adjusting a hardness of each at least one interchangeable tool head tip.

18. The percussive massaging device of claim 17 , wherein the magnet is in a shape of a ring.

19. A percussive massaging device, comprising:

a tool receiver for receiving a massage tool therein, the tool receiver including a piston for providing percussive action to the massage tool; and

the massage tool, including a hollow attachment post at a first end thereof for insertion into the tool receiver and selectively attaching to the tool receiver via a magnetic mechanism, wherein the magnetic mechanism includes a magnet located in the tool receiver and an insert formed of magnetically attracted material located on the hollow attachment post;

the massage tool further comprising at least one interchangeable tool head tip attached to at least one second end of the hollow attachment post, the at least one interchangeable tool head tip being removable from the massage tool and an adjustment means for adjusting a hardness of each at least one interchangeable tool head tip.
