## Abstract

A transfer sleeve is disclosed, wherein the transfer sleeve is detachably set on a supporting unit for mounting a supporting arm. The transfer sleeve comprises a first tube body and a second tube body. The supporting unit is accommodated in the first tube body and the second tube body when the transfer sleeve is set on the supporting unit; the first tube body penetrates through the supporting arm when the supporting arm is set on the transfer sleeve.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A transfer sleeve, for being detachably set on a supporting unit and mounting a supporting arm, the supporting unit detachably penetrating through a plate and including a holder and a column disposed on the holder, the holder including a clamping element for abutting the plate, the supporting arm including a connecting hole, and the transfer sleeve comprising:
a first tube body including a first surrounding wall, a first top wall, and a first accommodating space, wherein the first surrounding wall and the first top wall are connected to each other and jointly define the first accommodating space;
a second tube body including a second surrounding wall, a second top wall, an opening, a second accommodating space, and a protruding edge extending from the second surrounding wall and toward the first top wall, protruding out from the second top wall, and being opposed to a large diameter section of the first tube body wherein the second surrounding wall and the second top wall are connected to each other and jointly define the second accommodating space, the second accommodating space is intercommunicated with the first accommodating space, the opening is formed on an edge of the second surrounding wall opposite to the second top wall, a groove is defined by the protruding edge, the second top wall, and the first tube body, and the groove matches with the supporting arm;
when the transfer sleeve is set on the supporting unit via the opening, the column is accommodated in the first accommodating space, and the holder is accommodated in the second accommodating space, and when the supporting arm is set on the transfer sleeve, the first tube body penetrates into the connecting hole.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second tube body further includes a fastening part formed on an inner surface of the second surrounding wall, and the holder further includes a fastener, wherein the fastening part is fastened to the fastener when the transfer sleeve is set on the supporting unit.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 2, wherein the second tube body further has an extending block, the extending block extends from the second surrounding wall and away from the second top wall, the holder has a notch, and the extending block is aligned and engaged to the notch.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 3, wherein the first tube body and the second tube body are cylindrical.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 4, wherein a first inner diameter of the first tube body is slightly larger than a diameter of the column, and when the transfer sleeve is set on the supporting unit, an inner surface of the first surrounding wall and the column are close fitted to each other.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 5, wherein the first inner diameter of the first tube body is smaller than a second inner diameter of the second tube body.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 6, wherein the first tube body further includes a small diameter section and the large diameter section, and wherein the small diameter section has a first outer diameter, the second surrounding wall has a second outer diameter, and the large diameter section has a third outer diameter, and the third outer diameter is larger than the first outer diameter and smaller than the second outer diameter.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second surrounding wall abuts against the clamping element.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 1, wherein the material of the transfer sleeve is selected from the group consisting of polyetherketoneketone, and polyethylene.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The transfer sleeve as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first top wall has a flat portion and an inclined portion formed between the first surrounding wall and the flat portion.
