Abstract: Disclosed are a floating tray mechanism and a robot. The floating tray mechanism includes a tray and a mounting bracket, the mounting bracket support the tray; the floating tray mechanism further comprises a floating contacting portion and a pulling rebounding portion, the floating contacting portion is provided on one of the tray and the mounting bracket, and the tray is movably supported on the mounting bracket, the pulling rebounding portion is configured to be able to pull the tray back to an initial position of translation when the tray moves relative to the mounting bracket. In the present application, the tray will have a damping relative stroke and a recovery relative stroke relative to the robot when a robot suddenly stops or suddenly speeds up, which greatly reduces the inertial motion of the goods, and thus the fluid goods will not spill out of the tray.
