If you've ever seen a dovetail joint, it should be fairly simple to figure out. Look at a standard door hinge; that's a fairly common dovetail application. Now replace the pin with an axle, and the screw plates with swing arms. You'd need to change the geometry and check the stresses, but that's pretty simple to do.
