Hmm Bill,
I had a closer look at it now and I would say, that the forces
just compensate inside the chain itsself,
or did I understand something wrong ?
Does the lower right pivot arm is fixed to the frame stand
or does it hover somehow ?

Regards, Stefan.

I had a somewhat similar design that appeared to be overbalanced, but did not work.  It takes the same energy to lift a weight as you can get from it when it descends.  The overbalance idea is only an illusion that appeals to intuition.  A gravity wheel that works must have something other than just plain overbalanced leverage to work.  Centrifugal force, magnetism, inertia or some other force must be used if success is to be possible.

A drawing of my wheel design is attached.

I did a quick count of the number of weights. First of all, you can have your wheel with as many off centers or pivots as you want, but this will not change the center vertical line on the total system weight movement. Just ask yourself what goes up, and what comes down at the next instance after your design starting point.

I am showing simply the weight count on left side red and on right side blue. Red side wins so it won't go up. But curiously, it should go down??? Egad... what the hell! Am I hallucinating.

In cases where there are more weights on one side than the other it is necessary to understand that the weights are passing from one side to the other.  Time is the element that enters in here.  The side with more weights is descending slower than the weights ascending.  The same amount of weight is descending as ascending for period of time.

Intuition says that the more weighted side would win, but what is actually happening is that the leverage is exactly counterbalancing the gravity.  One pound up = one pound down.
