Abstract
An image reading apparatus includes a conveying portion, a reading portion, an ejecting portion which ejects the sheet, conveyed by the conveying portion, in an ejection direction, and a sheet loading portion having a first loading portion and a second loading portion. The first loading portion is located below the ejecting portion and loaded with the sheet ejected from the ejecting portion. The second loading portion is located on a downstream side of the first loading portion in the ejection direction and is inclined with respect to the first loading portion so as to slope upward gradually further downstream in the ejection direction. In the ejection direction, a distance from the ejecting portion to an upstream end of the second loading portion is longer than a distance from the upstream end of the second loading portion to the downstream end of the loading portion.
