My first guess is to use a slot connection. You will need to model a curve in one part and a point on the other.With a slot connection the point will slide along the curve. You can specify (I think) a coefficient of restitution at the end points of the curve, so that there is some dampening when the point hits the end of the curve. I haven't played around with slot curves in a while, so I'm not sure how this works today.
