Abstract
A compensating element is disposed between a piezoelectric actuator and one or more transmission elements. The compensating element has a curved surface that bears against the piezoelectric actuator. The compensating element compensates for both a tilting of the piezoelectric actuator and, if two transmission elements are provided, for a difference in an overall height of the transmission elements.
