Sheet feeding devices, image reading devices and image forming devices

An image reading device comprising:

• a sheet placement portion configured to receive a sheet to be fed in a feed direction;
• a regulating portion configured to regulate, from both sides in a width direction, a position in the width direction of the sheet placed on the sheet placement portion, the width direction being a direction orthogonal to the feed direction, the regulating portion comprising,
• a first regulating portion configured to regulate the position in the width direction of the sheet from one of the sides in the width direction, and
• a second regulating portion configured to regulate the position in the width direction of the sheet from another side in the width direction, and at least one of the first regulating portion and the second regulating portion configured to move in the width direction;
• a reading portion configured to read an image of the sheet that is fed;
• and
• an output portion configured to receive the sheet whose image has been read by the reading portion, the output portion comprising,
• a first output portion that extends from the first regulating portion toward the second regulating portion, the first output portion comprising,
• a first end portion that comes closest to the second regulating portion among sections of an edge of the first output portion on the second regulating portion side;
• and
• a first horizontal portion that extends in parallel with the sheet placement portion, and
• a second output portion that extends from the second regulating portion toward the first regulating portion, the second output portion comprising,
• a second end portion that comes closest to the first regulating portion among sections of an edge of the second output portion on the first regulating portion side, and in a proximity state, the first end portion being located closer to the second regulating portion than the second end portion, the proximity state being a state in which a distance between the first regulating portion and the second regulating portion is at a minimum;
• and
• a second horizontal portion that extends in parallel with the sheet placement portion.

An image forming device comprising:

• a sheet placement portion configured to receive a sheet to be fed in a feed direction is placed;
• a regulating portion configured to regulate, from both sides in a width direction, a position in the width direction of the sheet placed on the sheet placement portion, the width direction being a direction orthogonal to the feed direction, the regulating portion comprising,
• a first regulating portion configured to regulate the position in the width direction of the sheet from one of the sides in the width direction, and
• a second regulating portion configured to regulate the position in the width direction of the sheet from another side in the width direction, and at least one of the first regulating portion and the second regulating portion configured to move in the width direction;
• a reading portion configured to read an image of the sheet that is fed;
• an image forming portion configured to perform image forming on a recording medium, based on the image read by the reading portion;
• and
• an output portion configured to receive the sheet on which image forming has been performed by the image forming portion, the output portion comprising,
• a first output portion that extends from the first regulating portion toward the second regulating portion, the first output portion comprising,
• a first end portion that comes closest to the second regulating portion among sections of an edge of the first output portion on the second regulating portion side;
• and
• a first horizontal portion that extends in parallel with the sheet placement portion, and
• a second output portion that extends from the second regulating portion toward the first regulating portion, the second output portion comprising,
• a second end portion that comes closest to the first regulating portion among sections of an edge of the second output portion on the first regulating portion side, and in a proximity state, the first end portion being located closer to the second regulating portion than the second end portion, the proximity state being a state in which a distance between the first regulating portion and the second regulating portion is at a minimum;
• and
• a second horizontal portion that extends in parallel with the sheet placement portion.
