Hereis my aditional edit that people believed I cannot go back in time. You see I added more info.
I guess I go ahead and patent it. I will start with provisional caus I dont have money yet. And I find lawyer to write claims for me. We used lightning rocket to shoot in the sky to create artificial lightning. Then it strikes the cylinder and then I cannot tell you ....

If I were you, I would go AHEAD in time using that machine and either check the best answer or directly go two or three years ahead to know the patent status!

If you invented a time machine, how did you solve the spacial differential problem, which has always plagued time machine builders? Don't know what the spacial differential problem is? Let me explain:
Let's say you wanted to go back in time 6 months. Well, six months ago the earth was way on the other side of the sun, about 186,000,000 miles from here. So, you would materialize in space at the point where the earth is when you begin your journey. Not only that, but the sun, which is moving around the center of the galaxy would have moved, too. Not only that, but the galaxy would have moved, too. So how do you calculate where the earth, sun and galaxy are going to be at the time you choose to go to. Not only that, but what type of spaceship did you build to carry your time machine?
I don't think you can answer these questions. Therefore, I don't believe you built a time machine, but good luck at the patent office.
P.S. Firefox has a good idea.

In all likelihood you haven't.
Even if the laws of physics allowed time travel (which they very well may not) the only stable timeline is one in which no one ever invents time travel and so eventually that timeline will become the one true timeline.
Otherwise time travel creates a parallel universe and therefore you don't actually get to change history, just live a different version.
I'm afraid you don't have anything worth patenting.

Um, sure. Whatever you do, it's already happened that people have gone back in time to try and 'change' things, but we're here, so whatever. And trying to answer to what people are going to say is laughable, but I doubt that someone would report you for doing this.
See, everything that has happened, will happen, and everything that has happened was caused by what will happen. Thus, time travel is extremely possible, but it's not like you can change anything.

Patenting costs a lot of money and only gives you the right to sue people who infringe on your patent.
Just keep it a trade secret and use it to make a lot of money.
If you really have a time machine (which I rather doubt) I can tell you a lot of ways to make money -- casino, stock market, etc.

it would be wise for you to patent. Because not to be rude, but an invention doesnt need to work to be patented. If you are worried about people stealing your idea dont worry that is what patents are for then if they do copy you, you can make millions by suing them for infringement. Dont worry they will be more interested in getting to see it than copying it

No, you can't patent it. The person in charge of your wing at that hospital you are at will take your idea and patent it himself.
BTW, is it comfortable sleeping in one of those rooms with pillows everywhere around, including all the walls?

i hope you have a black hole hany to bend the lines of spacetime back on them selves for the required quantum fracture
ps. if you dont survive the trip no problem, youl just do it again

I think it is safe for you to patent it, as long as you have the money to pay for it.
