Abstract
A sheet discharging device includes a sheet discharging section which discharges sheets, and a sheet discharging tray including a stacking wall portion on which discharged sheets are stacked. The stacking wall portion includes a first wall portion having a first surface which becomes higher in a direction in which sheets are discharged, and a second wall portion connected to an upstream end of the first wall portion in the sheet discharging direction and having a second surface including at least one of a horizontal surface, an inclined surface having a smaller gradient than that of the first surface, and an inclined surface having a gradient opposite to that of the first surface.

A sheet discharging device comprising:
- a sheet discharging section which discharges sheets;
- and
- a sheet discharging tray including a stacking wall portion on which discharged sheets are stacked, the stacking wall portion comprising:
- a first wall portion having a first surface which becomes higher in a direction in which sheets are discharged;
- and
- a second wall portion connected to an upstream end of the first wall portion in the sheet discharging direction and having a second surface including at least one of a horizontal surface, an inclined surface having a smaller gradient than that of the first surface, and an inclined surface having a gradient opposite to that of the first surface.
A sheet discharging device comprising:
- a sheet discharging section which discharges sheets;
- and
- a sheet discharging tray including a stacking wall portion on which discharged sheets are stacked, the sheet discharging tray comprising:
- a projecting portion having a wall portion provided in a central portion of the sheet discharging tray in a width direction substantially orthogonal to the sheet discharging direction to raise a width-wise central portion of the sheets stacked on the sheet discharging tray, the wall portion comprising:
- a first wall portion having a first surface which becomes higher in a direction in which sheets are discharged;
- and
- a second wall portion connected to an upstream end of the first wall portion in the sheet discharging direction and having a second surface including at least one of a horizontal surface, an inclined surface having a smaller gradient than that of the first surface, and an inclined surface having a gradient opposite to that of the first surface.
