Claim 10:
11. The chute safety system of claim 10, wherein:
said second segment comprises a weight configured for pulling said spool portion to a reset state when not engaged;
said counterweight assembly is configured with said second segment being rotationally at a downward position with said rotational force transfer assembly in said reset state;
said first segment is fixed to and rotate with a portion of said spool portion around said spool axis;
said spool axis and said counterweight axis is separated by a counterweight extension distance;
as said rotational force transfer assembly transitions from said reset state to an engaged state, said second segment is configured to apply a counterweight torque against said animal weight force and said counterweight torque is calculated using said counterweight extension distance;
said second segment is configured to rotate freely relative to said first segment around said counterweight axis; and
said second segment is configured to remain vertical so as to maximize force on said spool portion.
