I'm exploring possibilities with arched curves, stretching and tension.
This flipping curved mechanism is sort of inspired by the Cars 3 pop of the Pixar pop-up book. Tried to simplify it and added some curves.

I had to try this. Multiple mechanics in a row in opposite directions:

For a more visual effect, I’ve experimented with adding more complicated shapes for the flats:
