ABSTRACT:
A discharged sheet accommodating tray in which sheets discharged from a discharging section along surfaces of the sheets are successively stacked, includes: a placement surface on which the sheets discharged from the discharging section are placed; and a sheet ride-on portion provided at the placement surface and which sheets being discharged ride on. The sheet ride-on portion can be a convex portion or an inclined plate located in an intermediate central portion of the placement surface, or can be a plurality of convex portions or inclined plates disposed in an intermediate central portion of the placement surface along a direction orthogonal to the sheet discharging direction. Accordingly, sheets which have already been placed on the placement surface have a mountain-shaped configuration at the sheet ride-on portion. When a leading end portion of a sheet which is being discharged passes over a peak portion of the mountain-shaped configuration, a gap is formed between the leading end portion and a sheet which has already been placed, such that close contact of the sheet which has already been placed and the sheet which is being discharged is prevented.
