Abstract (en)

An ink jet device comprising a number of ink channels (12) that are arranged side by side and are covered by a flexible sheet (16), and a corresponding number of actuators (18) that are arranged to exert an actuating force onto the sheet (16) through a bump (22) that has a trapezoidal cross-section, characterised in that the bumps (22) are formed on the sheet (16) in such an orientation that their trapezoidal cross-section diverges towards the actuator (18), and the bumps (22) are bonded to the actuators (18) by means of an adhesive (28).
