Abstract: Manipulator for guiding of devices for treatment of heats in furnaces, ladles and the like, e.g. lances for injection of oxygen through a door (3) of an electromelting furnace, consisting of a feed table (19), on which one or several devices (24,29) are arranged displaceable mechanically guided in its length direction by means of one or several feed devices, at which the feed table (19) is movable mechanically guided between an advanced position at a work point (14), where the feed table (19) is immediately in front of the furnace door (3) or the like, at which the devices (24,29) can be inserted into the furnace (2) and possibly lowered down into the heat, and a retracted position, where the feed table (19) is removed from the furnace door (3).
