The supporting portion is configured to support the discharged sheet. The regulation portion is configured to regulate a trailing edge position of the discharged sheet in a sheet discharge direction. The supporting portion includes a base surface, a first projection portion, and a second projection portion. The first projection portion projects from the base surface, is disposed downstream of the regulation portion in the sheet discharge direction, and extends in a width direction orthogonal to the sheet discharge direction. The second projection portion projects from the base surface, is disposed downstream of the first projection portion in the sheet discharge direction with a predetermined interval from the first projection portion, and is shorter than the first projection portion in the width direction.
