The storage product carrier has a support wall, which protrudes from the base body. Carrier arms are provided on the support wall, which protrude from the support wall, and on which sleeve-shaped storage products (36), particularly roller bushings, can be deposited. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A storage product carrier for a storage rack, the storage product carrier comprising: a base body surrounded by an edge wall, a support wall that extends in a generally vertical direction from the base body and in a generally horizontal direction along the base body, the edge wall protruding beyond the support wall in the horizontal direction, and cantilever arms extending perpendicular from the support wall on which a sleeve-like storage product, in particular sleeve rolls, can be disposed, and the support wall being inclined with respect to a normal from the base body such that the cantilever arms are inclined at an angle (α), which is greater than 0° and less than 5° with respect to the base body to prevent the sleeve-like storage product from sliding off the cantilever arms due to knocks or vibrations applied through the storage product carrier; wherein the cantilever arms are attached on the support wall by means of attachment elements that embrace one end of the cantilever arms in frictional engagement; and wherein the attachment elements are formed of metal clamps. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein attachment flanges with attachment openings for connecting the attachment elements to the support wall are provided on the support wall. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The storage product carrier according to claim 2 wherein, for the attachment of each cantilever arm two symmetrically-arranged metal clamp parts are provided on the attachment flanges, which are fixed on the attachment openings by means of elongate attachment means. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein a support bracket is provided for fixing the support wall on the base body. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The storage product carrier according to claim 4 in which the angle (β) between the support wall and the support base body is greater than 85° and less than 90°. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The storage product carrier according to claim 4, wherein the support bracket is fixed to the base body both on a cantilever-arm side of the support wall and on the opposite side. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according claim 1, wherein the cantilever arms are attached to the support wall in a releasable fashion. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The storage product carrier according to claim 7, in which cantilever arms of various cross-sectional shapes and sizes are attachable on the support wall. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1 in which the cantilever arms extend from the support wall at essentially a right angle. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein the cantilever arms are made of one of formed metal sheet and tube sections. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein the attachment elements are made to be self-adapting to the shape of the cantilever arms. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein the support wall comprises a carrier plate with openings for the insertion of the cantilever arms. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The storage product carrier according to claim 12, in which the edges of the carrier plate are bent and form an edge flange. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The storage product carrier according to claim 12, in which the support wall comprises reinforcing webs. ### Claim 15 (depends on 2) The storage product carrier according to claim 2 wherein the support wall comprised reinforcing webs, wherein the attachment flanges are arranged in the area of the reinforcing webs. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The storage product carrier according to claim 1, wherein the support wall comprises a damping element in the area of the cantilever arms. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) A storage rack comprising: a transport apparatus, a plurality of carrier supports spaced one above the other, arranged in pairs on opposite side walls of the storage rack, and the storage product carrier according to claim 1 being supported by one of the pairs of carrier supports. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The storage rack according to claim 17, wherein the transport apparatus is controllable for the storage product carrier between different pairs of carrier supports. ### Claim 19 (depends on 17) The storage rack of claim 17 in which the edge wall of the storage product carrier has a height that provides for guiding the storage product carrier between the pairs of carrier supports.
