The invention provides a double-drive quick-return reciprocating turnover movement mechanism and an automatic cooking robot. The double-drive quick-return reciprocating turnover movement mechanism comprises a fixed frame, a rocking rod, an eccentric connecting rod, a pot body, a connecting rod, a crank and a transmission structure; the rocking rod and a first end of the crank are respectively connected with the fixed frame rotatably, the first end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected with the second end of the rocking rod, and the second end of the connecting rod is rotatably connectedwith the second end of the crank; the transmission structure is arranged between the first end and the second end of the rocking rod, the first end of the eccentric connecting rod is in driving connection with the transmission structure, and the second end of the eccentric connecting rod is connected with the pot body; the eccentric connecting rod is driven by a motor and the transmission structure to rotate, and the crank is directly driven by the motor to rotate. The robot utilizes a crank rocking rod mechanism, is simple in structure, can reciprocate circularly, has a quick return characteristic, can make a pot reciprocate along a complex track through a double-driving connecting rod, and can highly simulate pot tossing and dish pouring motions of chefs.
