Pressure-actuated percussive device

摘要

A hand-held percussive device for facilitating the redistribution of fat remaining after liposuction. A piston is driven pneumatically in a reciprocating motion externally against a patient's skin and is self-actuated. A floating valve works in cooperation with the piston such that when the device is pressed against a patient's skin, the reciprocating motion begins. When the device is retracted, the reciprocating motion stops.
