Preparation device for making a thread end ready for splicing

Make-ready device for making a first thread end ready for connection to a second thread end in a thread joining device, the make-ready device having a hollow body open at opposite ends thereof for receiving the first thread therein and traversible by a gas flow, comprising at least one compressed gas guiding device for guiding the gas flow so as to at least partly stretch, parallelize and clean the fibers of the first thread in the hollow body, the compressed gas guiding device serving to control at least one of the nature and the direction of the compressed gas flow to the first thread end inside the hollow body, said compressed gas guiding device having a branch line connected to a compressed gas supply line and being continuously adjustably tappable with respect to at least the one of the nature and the direction of the compressed gas flow, said compressed gas guide device having an element selectively and continuously connectible to a selective portion of said branch line.
