Abstract

A device for producing a thread connection by splicing includes a splicing head having a splicing chamber formed therein in which a tension-proof thread connection is formed by mutually entangling, hooking, intermingling and/or wrapping fibers of thread ends, means for supplying heated splicing air to the splicing channel, and an adjustable heat source coupled to the splicing head.
