A chock for mounting and levelling a machine to a foundation and a method thereof

A chock for mounting and levelling a machine to a foundation, comprising a first element 110 having a through opening 114 and a first section; and a second element 120 having a through opening (Fig. 1B, 124) and a second section. In use, the first section and the second section cooperate to form a chamber (Fig. 1B, 160). The elements are arranged such that through 114 opening and through opening 124 are aligned to define an axis 190. A fluid is injected to the chamber via a conduit 117 arranged at either element 110 or element 120 to move the two elements relative to each other along the axis. Locking means (Fig. 1B, 150) locks the movement of the two elements towards each other, and comprises a locknut (Fig. 1B, 151) arranged at, and capable of moving relative to, element 120 along the axis. Element 110 has a convex/concave face 118 which mates with a face (Fig. 1B, 131) of an element (Fig. 1B, 130) e.g. a spherical washer, which is located between the locknut and element 110. The locknut has a planar face (Fig. 1B, 152) which mates with a planar face (Fig. 1B, 132) of element 130.
