an outer ring which is configured as a sheet metal part and has a cylindrical outer surface, an inner surface which is provided with clamping ramps, a first rim, and a second rim,

a plurality of clamping rollers which are sprung against the clamping ramps, and

a cage which is arranged fixedly in terms of rotation in the outer ring, is configured as a sheet metal part and to which springs are fastened which are provided for suspending the clamping rollers, wherein the cage is comprised of a single continuous cage ring which bears against the first rim of the outer ring and is disposed between the first rim and the second rim of the outer ring, and wherein the cage is held in the outer ring in a form-fitting manner, with the cage ring having a contour that substantially mirrors the shape of the clamping ramps.

2. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cage has webs which extend at right angles to the cage ring and serve to hold the springs.

3. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 2 , wherein in each case one spring is snapped onto a web.

4. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the web has an opening which serves to hold the spring.

5. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the webs form stops for the clamping rollers.

6. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 5 , wherein each web has a center section which extends in a radial plane and at least one holding projection which is angled away from the former.

7. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the springs are configured as folded leaf springs.

8. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cage is manufactured from a disk-shaped sheet metal blank, the utilization of the surface area being at least 30%.

9. The roller freewheel as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the outer ring has axial grooves between clamping ramps which are adjacent in the circumferential direction.
