The tool insertion structure includes a base, a body and an elastic element. The body includes a sleeve portion having an insertion space for a tool. The body is movable between a first position and a second position and relative to the base. The elastic element is connected to the base and the body to provide a force for moving the body from the second position to the first position. The size of the insertion space varies as the body moves between the first position and the second position. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A tool insertion structure adaptable to different sizes of tools, the tool insertion structure comprising: a base; a body comprising a sleeve portion having an insertion space for a tool, wherein the body is movable between a first position and a second position and relative to the base; and an elastic element connected to the base and the body to provide a force for moving the body from the second position to the first position; wherein the size of the insertion space varies as the body moves between the first position and the second position. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The tool insertion structure according to claim 1, wherein the base has an opening, and the sleeve portion is movably disposed in the opening. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The tool insertion structure according to claim 2, wherein the insertion space is defined as a portion of the sleeve portion outside of the base through the opening. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The tool insertion structure according to claim 3, wherein: when the body is located at the first position, the insertion space has a minimum size; when the body is located at the second position, the insertion space has a maximum size. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The tool insertion structure according to claim 2, wherein the body further comprises a connection member, the sleeve portion is fixed on the connection member, and the body is connected to the elastic element through the connection member. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The tool insertion structure according to claim 5, wherein the connection member comprises a stopping portion whose size is larger than that of the opening. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The tool insertion structure according to claim 6, wherein the base comprises a limiting portion having a movement space, and the connection member is limited to move within the movement space along a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The tool insertion structure according to claim 7, wherein when the body is located at the second position, the stopping portion leans on an edge of the opening in the first direction. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The tool insertion structure according to claim 7, wherein the limiting portion comprises a rib, which leans on a surface of the connection member as the body moves between the first position and the second position. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The tool insertion structure according to claim 7, wherein the limiting portion comprises a stopping wall, and when the body is located at the first position, the connection member leans on the stopping wall in the second direction. ### Claim 11 An electronic device comprising: a casing configured to cover a touch panel, wherein the casing has an opening; a body comprising a sleeve portion movably disposed in the opening, wherein the sleeve portion has an insertion space for a stylus pen, and the body is movable between a first position and a second position and relative to the casing; and an elastic element connected to the casing and the body to provide a force for moving the body from the second position to the first position; wherein the size of the insertion space varies as the body moves between the first position and the second position. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The electronic device according to claim 11, wherein the elastic element is disposed in the casing and has one end fixed on an inner surface of the casing and another end connected to the body. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The electronic device according to claim 12, wherein the insertion space is defined as a portion of the sleeve portion outside the base through the opening. ### Claim 14 (depends on 13) The electronic device according to claim 13, wherein: when the body is located at the first position, the insertion space has a minimum size; when the body is located at the second position, the insertion space has a maximum size. ### Claim 15 (depends on 12) The electronic device according to claim 12, wherein the body further comprises a connection member, the sleeve portion is fixed on the connection member, and the body is connected to the elastic element through the connection member. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The electronic device according to claim 15, wherein the connection member comprises a stopping portion whose size is larger than that of the opening. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The electronic device according to claim 16, wherein the base comprises a limiting portion having a movement space, and the connection member is limited to move within the movement space along a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction. ### Claim 18 (depends on 17) The electronic device according to claim 17, wherein when the body is located at the second position, the stopping portion leans on an edge of the opening in the first direction. ### Claim 19 (depends on 17) The electronic device according to claim 17, wherein the limiting portion comprises a rib, which leans on a surface of the connection member as the body moves between the first position and the second position. ### Claim 20 (depends on 17) The electronic device according to claim 17, wherein the limiting portion comprises a stopping wall, and when the body is located at the first position, the connection member leans on the stopping wall in the second direction.
