The 18-speed mechanical automatic transmission as described in claim 4, characterized in that, The third shaft (33) extends out of the front end of the transmission housing (38) and is provided with a lubricating oil pump drive structure, which can drive the lubricating oil pump (36) installed in the clutch housing (37).
7. The 18-speed mechanical automatic transmission as described in claim 4, characterized in that, The first-axis force-taking speed measuring gear (4) and the third-axis transmission gear (35) are both spur gears.
8. The 18-speed mechanical automatic transmission as described in claim 1, characterized in that, A brake (30) is installed in the clutch housing (37) at the front end of the left intermediate shaft (21). The brake (30) includes a brake disc (301) and a friction disc (302) mounted on the left intermediate shaft (21). The brake disc (301) is fixedly mounted on the clutch housing (37) by a guide cylindrical pin (305) arranged parallel to the left intermediate shaft (21). The friction disc (302) is fixed on the left intermediate shaft (21) by a spline. Both the brake disc (301) and the friction disc (302) can move axially along the left intermediate shaft (21). The friction disc (302) can rotate with the left intermediate shaft (21). A piston (303) is provided at the front end of the left intermediate shaft (21). A return spring (304) is provided between the piston (303) and the left intermediate shaft (21).
