In the case of a robot interaction system comprising a robot () having a robot controller with types of operation and operating modes which influence an associated man-robot interface, the aim is to provide a solution which allows flexible matching of a robot or robot system to different degrees of a man-robot interaction. This is achieved in that the robot controller is equipped with types of operation and operating modes which influence an associated man-robot interface and are designed to be matched and/or to be capable of being matched to different automation degrees of the robot () and/or to different time and/or physical positions of the man and robot as interaction partners in a working area.

A method for operating a change converter unit of an oxygen steel-making plant, in which, for the change process, a worn converter, including the entire converter unit, made up of not only the converter, but also the converter carriage, carrier ring, tilting drive, bottom flushing device and, if present, a carrier ring cooling device, is moved out of the steel-making stand into an empty delivery and waiting stand for repair, and, at the same time, a further structurally identical complete converter unit, made up of a repaired, ready-to-use converter, is moved from a further delivery and waiting stand into the steel-making stand.

An apparatus for exchanging measuring and/or sample probes which can be removed from a probe cartridge and then attached to a contact tube arranged at the lower end of a sublance. To enable a quick exchange of probes a gripper is provided for grasping the probe. The gripper is connected via a joint with an extension arm which is displaceable telescopically by a drive unit arranged so as to be movable on a rotatable and vertically adjustable table by at least two piston/cylinder units. A control device is provided for controlling the apparatus.
