Introduction from the Scribe
This document was written by me based on years of research, notes, and theories of my late father, Jerzy Żbikowski. As the guardian of his intellectual legacy, my goal is to present his revolutionary vision to the world in a form as faithful to the original as possible, while giving it a structure that allows for a full understanding of its depth and potential.

Archimedes' Fulcrum: Torque as the Key to Energy from Time
(New Theoretical Preface)
Archimedes, one of the greatest physicists of antiquity, famously said: "Give me a place to stand, and I shall move the Earth". He understood the power of the lever, but classical physics imposed a limitation on this phenomenon: by gaining force (torque), we lose distance or time. The energy balance in a classical system always came out to zero.
This theory – the Energy from Time Theory – indicates, however, that Archimedes was correct in a deeper sense than previously thought. To "move the Earth" (achieve energy over-unity), a fulcrum was needed that exists outside the domain of time.
That fulcrum is Torque (M).
Physical analysis reveals a fundamental property: Torque is independent of time. The formula defining torque (M = F · r) relies solely on force and geometry (the length of the arm). Time does not appear in this equation. Torque exists instantaneously and statically. It is the only quantity in mechanics that is "insensitive" to the passage of time.
It is precisely this independence that allows for a breakthrough in the power equation (P = M · ω). In classical gears, increasing torque (M) by extending the arm necessitates a decrease in angular velocity (ω) because the path to travel becomes longer. Time works against the system there.
The invention presented in this work (The Torque Generator) breaks this dependency. Thanks to a unique mechanical construction, the system allows for an increase in radius (r), and thus torque (M), while forcing the maintenance of the same angular velocity (ω).
Since torque is indifferent to time, it "does not object" to the increase of the arm. Power, however, which is time-dependent, rises sharply because the system performs work on a longer arm in the same time that it would classically take to perform it on a shorter one.
The surplus of energy (E) in the equation E = m · (l²/t²) therefore results from the fact that the effective time (t) needed to traverse the increased circumference has been reduced by the device's construction. This is not magic – it is the engineering application of the fact that we have rested the lever on a parameter independent of time.
Abstract
This document presents a revolutionary theory of energy generation called "Energy from Time," authored by Jerzy Żbikowski. The theory, starting from Albert Einstein's fundamental formula E=mc², proposes its reinterpretation by breaking down the constant speed of light c into its components: distance l and time t. This leads to the conclusion that energy E is inversely proportional to time t, and thus its acquisition is possible through the mechanical shortening of time in a closed system. The paper describes the construction of a prototype device – a specialized mechanical transmission based on a unique satellite drive transmission design. It enables the driving and driven wheels, despite having different radii, to have the same number of teeth, which forces an identical rotational speed and leads to the generation of increased torque without the loss of angular velocity. The results of experiments conducted on working prototypes, which confirmed the practical feasibility of the theory, are also presented.
Chapter 1: Introduction – The Energy Crisis and the Need for a New Paradigm
Fire, the kindling of which we have mastered to perfection, has been used by humans as a primary source of energy for centuries. Human mastery over fire ensures it remains the main source of energy. Humanity can extract natural resources hidden deep underground; however, the ever-growing demand for fuels causes gas and oil reserves to shrink permanently. The moment when the last drop of oil is burned is inevitably approaching.
It is imperative that an alternative to the current method of energy acquisition emerges. The fear of losing access to current civilizational achievements drives people to search. Sources such as hydro, wind, or solar power are only able to satisfy a small fraction of civilizational demand. Nuclear energy, due to the problem of radioactive waste as well as high costs and technological limitations, is also not an ideal solution, especially for poorer societies.
The problem of access to cheap and clean energy is the key to solving other global issues. The price of energy determines economic development, social stability, and world peace. Universal and free access to energy sources would solve many problems plaguing humanity, but the solution is exclusively energy that is both cheap and clean. Does a solution meeting these requirements exist? Yes. It was pointed out by Albert Einstein the moment he formulated the theory of relativity.
Chapter 2: Theoretical Foundations – Redefining the E=mc² Formula
In May 1921, at Princeton University, Albert Einstein delivered a series of lectures discussing the essence of the theory of relativity, the crowning result of which is the statement that:
E=mc² where c=constans
Until now, we know that energy can be obtained by changing (decreasing) the mass m in the process of radioactive decay. Let us consider, however, that c² is the square of velocity, so:
c² = v² = (l/t)² = l²/t²
Substituting this into the original formula, we get:
E = m(l²/t²)
Thus, ultimately, we have three components whose change will affect the value of energy E: mass m, distance l, and time t.
The analysis of the formula shows that:
- Increasing mass
mincreases energyE. - Increasing distance
lincreases energyE. - Increasing time
tdecreases energyE.
From the above comes a fundamental conclusion: if we decrease the time element t, we will increase the energy E in the system.
Chapter 3: Device Description and Experimental Methodology
The "Energy from Time" theory assumes the possibility of building a mechanical device capable of generating energy through time manipulation. The device is based on a system of two coupled wheels (K₁ and K₂) with different radii (r₁ < r₂). The force generated on the circumference of the smaller (input) wheel is transmitted to the circumference of the larger (output) wheel, which, with a larger radius, according to the definition of torque (M = F · r), naturally generates a greater torque on the output axis relative to the input axis.
In classical mechanics, in such a system, whatever we gain in torque value (M), we lose in revolutions (n). This process is reversible.
This theory, however, assumes the possibility of constructing a transmission in which, despite the difference in radii and the resulting difference in torques (M₁ < M₂), it is possible to maintain the same number of revolutions at the input and output of the system in the same unit of time (n₁ = n₂).
This means that the power at the output of the system (N₂ = M₂ · n/t) will be greater than the power at the input (N₁ = M₁ · n/t), leading to an increase in energy E in the system. The source of this increase is the shortening of the time t₂ needed for a point on the circumference of the larger wheel to travel the same distance, relative to the time t₁ of a point on the smaller wheel, while maintaining the same angular velocity.
Neutralization of Erroneous Criticism Based on Classical Mechanics:
Any attempts to analyze this device using simplified models of a classical chain transmission are doomed to failure and lead to erroneous conclusions. Critics, focusing on the alleged influence of "chain thickness" on the "effective radius" of the driving wheel, completely ignore the unique and innovative essence of this construction.
The genius of this solution lies not in a simple chain, but in a specialized, satellite drive transmission construction. Force is not simply transmitted along the circumference but is transformed, as the special chain construction performs a transformation of modules from a module suitable for the wheel with the smaller radius to a module suitable for the wheel with the larger radius. The constructional key is the fact that the driving (input) and driven (output) wheels, despite different radii, possess the same number of teeth, which is achievable precisely thanks to the satellite mechanism. It is this feature that inevitably forces the same angular velocity (n₁=n₂) on both wheels, leading to the phenomenon described in this theory.
The device is not a "perpetuum mobile" creating energy from nothing. It is a more perfect form of the lever. The mechanism multiplies force (in the form of torque), but thanks to its unique construction, it does not pay the standard price in the form of lost speed. Since the output power (N₂ = M₂ · n₂) is mathematically greater than the input power (N₁ = M₁ · n₁), because M₂ is greater than M₁ and n₂ is equal to n₁, this "surplus" energy must come from somewhere. This surplus is precisely "Energy from Time."
To verify the theory, three subsequent experiments were conducted on working prototypes.
- Experiment 1: A prototype system of wheels coupled by a special chain, driven by an electric motor, showed an increase in torque of about 17% at the system output while consuming the same power. The results, however, were disturbed by high technical resistance of the prototype.
- Experiment 2: A prototype in which equal masses were suspended on wheels of equal radii, mounted on the transmission axes, showed a tendency to induce motion due to the difference in torques; however, the motion was not continuous due to high technical resistance.
- Experiment 3: A prototype with an improved wheel meshing system was subjected to the same test as in Experiment 2.
Chapter 4: Results and Conclusions
The result of the third experiment constituted practical confirmation of the "Energy from Time" theory. As recorded in the documentation:
"Continuous motion of equal masses m₁ and m₂ was observed due to the difference in torques M₁ and M₂ occurring on the cooperating wheels, and the distances l₁ and l₂ traveled in the same time t by masses m₁ and m₂ are equal. This means that energy E was released, which manifested itself in the form of motion."
The experiments proved that it is possible to build a mechanical system that, utilizing the phenomenon of time shortening within a single frame of reference, generates surplus energy, thus constituting a clean, cheap, and potentially unlimited source. Its simplicity compels one to claim with absolute conviction that this is the solution to humanity's burning energy problem.
