Summary

"The coupler point rotates but does not translate, as if the point were pinned to ground but it is actually unconstrained. The mechanism workings are disguised by integration with various shapes (in this case, animals)." (The point of this elephant is that the circle at the tip of the trunk rotates without its center moving.)

I just made it look more like an elephant.

See original for details. Thanks for your efforts and research, guys and gals.
