A support unit is provided at a downstream side of a tray surface tilted upward in a sheet discharge direction so as to be movable in the sheet discharge direction and a reverse direction of the sheet discharge direction. The support unit has a support plate that supports a discharge sheet from below. The support plate is tilted in a vertical direction by being supported at an upstream end of the support plate in as a fulcrum and is raised and downed with respect to the tray surface so as to change an angle.
