An automatic transmission comprises a double-contrate-tooth combined fluted disc (120) and a two stage transmission ordinary gear train. The gear shifting mechanism of the transmission is the double-contrate-tooth combined fluted disc (120), which has double contrate teeth, namely, left contrate teeth and right contrate teeth. By the axial moving of the double-contrate-tooth combined fluted disc (120) on the transmission output shaft, its left contrate teeth and right contrate teeth respectively engage with the contrate teeth of the first gear and the second gear reduction gears, to realize the second shift position and the first shift position, and when it engages with neither of them, the transmission is in the neutral shift position. The left contrate teeth and the right contrate teeth are individually independent or integrally assembled structures. Compared with the traditional AMT, the transmission does not need a synchronizer; therefore, the structure is simple, the reliability is increased, the gear shift duration is shortened, the shifting shock is relatively small, the manufacturing cost is low, and it is easy to realize industrialization. The transmission has simple arrangement of gears, short axial dimension, small weight, and occupies small room, and meets the development trend of light weighting and fuel saving.

A baler including a flywheel driven by a PTO of a tractor, an input shaft which connects to the PTO, an output shaft which connects to the flywheel, an intermediate gear mounted for rotation between the input shaft and the output shaft, the intermediate gear being parallel to the input shaft and adapted to drive the output shaft, wherein the input shaft includes a displaceable geared collar adapted to engage the intermediate gear with either a first lower gear ratio or a second higher gear ratio. This allows the tractor PTO a lower ratio (speed) range to start the flywheel and then accelerate the flywheel to an intermediate speed before shifting and accelerating to the final desired operating speed.
