Abstract
A method of adjusting a wedge angle between a pair of wedge surfaces in a wedge device. The wedge device includes a housing, a pair of opposed walls therein with at least one of the opposed walls having a bifurcated wall section and with the other of the opposed walls and the bifurcated wall section defining the wedge surfaces, and an adjusting device. In practicing this method, the adjusting device is drivingly engaged with a part of the bifurcated wall section, and thereby the bifurcated wall section is deflected with respect to the other opposed wall so as to adjust the wedge angle between the wedge surfaces defined on the bifurcated wall section and the other opposed wall, respectively. A wedge device, a clamping device, a method of releasably securing a clamping device, and a method of releasably securing a stator are also disclosed.
