Ackchyually they’re both. They convert AC to DC, and adapt Schuko (in my case) to USB. They’re most commonly called adapters though. People will look at you funny if you call them converters.
IKEA electronics are pretty safe to use. They’re quick to recall any failing product and don’t want a loss leader like power strips or power-adapters to be a drain on their reputation. Just by the shear amount they sell, issues will become apparent quickly.

What? Schuko is an AC power plug. So no, it doesn’t adapt that to usb. It converts ac to dc and the plug is directly usb.
Even if you think they’re “safe to use”, I doubt they have the same longevity, capabilities and protections that a proper GaN charger has.
