ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for thermally splicing a plurality of associated pairs of yarn ends employed in tufting carpet is provided, having an electrically conductive wire extending across a width of a beam of yarn ends as a heating element, the wire being biased in tension between a pair of springs attached to the wire and to terminal mounted on a bracket member. A yarn end spacing and gaging bar is also mounted to the bracket to retain the associated pairs of yarn ends in a contacting relation in recesses disposed between teeth on the bar, the pairs of yarn ends being made up of yarn ends severed from a spent beam of yarn and associated yarn ends from a fresh beam of yarn. The apparatus maintains the heating element in a substantially fixed position with respect to the plurality of associated pairs of yarn ends to effect a substantially simultaneous heating and melting together of the pairs of yarn ends, and is preferably removably mounted to a beam rack holding the fresh beam.
