Abstract
This paper presents a method for capturing and recycling mechanical energy from interactions between permanent magnets and ferromagnetic components using a mechanical storage and redistribution system. The system achieves high efficiency through controlled motion, flywheel energy storage (or similar methods), and precise energy transfer mechanisms. While not generating energy from the magnets themselves, this approach allows nearly complete capture of the energy released during motion for practical work.
