The invention relates to a storage configuration having a predeterminable storage atmosphere, comprising a storage chamber for receiving a plurality of storage product carriers for storage product, which can be delivered to a feeding and removal opening for the storage and removal of the storage product using a transport apparatus, and further comprising an air-conditioning apparatus, which associated with the storage chamber and exhausts air from the storage chamber, treats it, and injects it back into the storage chamber via exhaust and injection openings provided on the storage chamber. The exhaust and injection openings are disposed such that the air flows through the storage chamber in the vertical direction.

1. A storage configuration with a storage and retrieval system and a predeterminable storage atmosphere, comprising; a plurality of flat air permeable product carriers each extending between opposite ends, being open at the top, and having a bottom with openings through which air can flow and on which product can be deposited;a storage chamber forming an enclosure isolatable from its surrounding environment including a pair of side walls, an opening through which the product can be fed and removed from the storage chamber, and a plurality of vertically displaced storage locations at which the product carriers are stored;a transport apparatus for supporting and vertically transporting the product carriers between the vertically displaced storage locations at which the product carriers extend across the storage chamber such that the opposite ends of the product carriers are located proximate to the side walls of the storage chamber;the storage chamber including an air extraction opening adjacent to a bottom section of the storage chamber and an air injection opening adjacent to a top section of the storage chamber;an exhaust air duct connected to the air extraction opening;a conditioning apparatus interconnecting the exhaust air duct and the air injection opening for exhausting the air from the bottom section of the storage chamber via the air extraction opening, treating it and injecting it back into the top section of the storage chamber via the air injection opening, so that the air flows through the storage chamber in a vertical direction from the top section to the bottom section along a pathway that proceeds from the conditioning apparatus through the air injection opening into the top section of the storage chamber through the bottom openings of the product carriers in the vertically displaced storage locations in the same vertical direction and out the bottom section of the storage chamber through the air extraction opening and along the exhaust air duct for returning to the conditioning apparatus. 2. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that at least one of the injection opening and the extraction opening are configured as a perforated metal sheet. 3. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the air extraction opening is provided in a lower region of the side walls of the storage chamber. 4. The storage configuration according to claim 1 in which the bottoms of the product carriers comprise a perforated metal sheet. 5. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the surface area of the openings is at least 5% of the surface of the bottom of the product carriers. 6. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus includes a particle filter to clean the air. 7. The storage configuration according to claim 4, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus cleans dusts and small particulate from the air exhausted from the storage chamber. 8. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus provides for heating the air. 9. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus provides for cooling the air. 10. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus provides for controlling a moisture content of the air. 11. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus in the storage chamber is closed-loop controlled. 12. The storage configuration according to claim 1, characterized in that the conditioning apparatus includes a ventilation unit to circulate the air. 13. The storage configuration according to claim 1, wherein the transport apparatus conveys the product carriers within the storage chamber in a vertically circulating manner through positions at which the opposite ends of the product carriers are located proximate to the side walls of the storage chamber. 14. The storage configuration according to claim 1 in which the storage chamber is enclosed by a housing, and the exhaust air duct is formed between the side walls of the storage chamber and the housing. 15. The storage configuration according to claim 13, wherein the pathway along which the air flows in the vertical direction from the top section of the storage chamber to the bottom section of the storage chamber traverses through the bottom openings of the product carriers that are attached for movement in the vertically circulating manner. 16. The storage configuration according to claim 15, wherein the transport apparatus is formed as a chain to which the plurality of product carriers are attached for movement in the vertically circulating manner within the storage chamber. 17. The storage configuration according to claim 16, wherein the attached product carriers have a brace extending between the opposite ends of the attached product carriers, and the attached product carriers are attached to the to the transport apparatus through the brace. 18. The storage configuration according claim 1, wherein the transport apparatus conveys the product carriers in the vertical direction and feeds and withdraws the product carriers to and from storage spaces. 19. The storage configuration according to claim 18, wherein the opening in the storage chamber is arranged for receiving the plurality of flat air permeable product carriers such that the product carriers can be delivered individually through the opening in the storage chamber for the storage and removal of the product that is deposited on the product carriers. 20. The storage configuration according to claim 19, wherein supports are provided on the side walls of the storage chamber for supporting the product carriers in the vertically displaced storage locations, and the product carriers include guiding steps at the opposite ends of the product carriers for guiding the product carriers onto the supports on the side walls of the storage chamber. 21. The storage configuration according to claim 1 in which the attached product carriers have no front or rear wall to ease the flow of the air around the product. 22. The storage configuration according to claim 21, wherein the openings in the bottoms of the attached product carriers are arranged to support a uniform vertical flow through the storage chamber.
