Fluid distribution device for an inkjet print head assembly

A fluid distribution device for a print head assembly, the fluid distribution device comprising:

• a fluid chamber provided with an inlet and a print head supply outlet, which are configured for a fluid connection to respectively a supply channel and at least one droplet forming unit;
• a fluid permeable filter forming a dividing wall in the fluid chamber such that the inlet is positioned on a first side of the fluid permeable filter and the print head supply outlet is positioned on a second side of the fluid permeable filter opposite the first side, and
• a damper element that includes a deformable membrane positioned on the second side of the fluid permeable filter in the fluid chamber,
• wherein the fluid permeable filter is inclined with respect to a first direction, the first direction is parallel to a vertical direction during operation, such that, when viewed in the first direction, a first volume in the fluid chamber between the fluid permeable filter and a first side wall facing the fluid permeable filter tapers in a direction away from the inlet,
• wherein the inlet is positioned at a top wall of the fluid chamber and the print head supply outlet is positioned at a bottom wall opposite the top wall,
• wherein, when viewed in the first direction the damper element, the fluid permeable filter, the inlet, and the print head supply outlet overlap with the bottom wall, and the fluid permeable filter overlaps with the inlet and the print head supply outlet, and
• wherein the deformable membrane extends along a second side wall of the fluid chamber where the second side wall extends substantially in the first direction during operation.
