A torsion pivot device including an elastic element having an axis in a longitudinal direction is described. Two or more pivot structures may be engaged with separate portions of the elastic element along the axis to allow the pivot structures to exert torque force to the separate portions of the elastic element. An axial guide mechanism may be defined through the elastic element substantially along the axis. The pivot structures may be rotatably coupled with the elastic element via the axial guide mechanism to allow the pivot structures to pivot or rotate relative to each other around the axis. The elastic element may be deformed by the torque force via the pivoting or rotation of the pivot structures. Twisting tension may be induced by the deformed elastic element to counter the torque force.
