The ramp having an entrance, a central, and an exit portion. The entrance portion has an arcuate extent over which the projections close the channel as the head rotates. The central portion has an arcuate extent over which the channel is sealed by the projections as the head rotates. The exit portion has an arcuate extent over which the projections open the channel as the head rotates. The arcuate extent of the entrance portion is unequal to the arcuate extent of the exit portion.
