         3 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein each of said holding member comprises at least one locking member, wherein said two locking members of said two holding members are configured to allow said two end portions of said two installation arms to be locked in said two slots respectively, such that when said two end portions of said two installation arms are respectively placed in said two slots of said two holding members respectively, said two end portions of said two installation arms are locked by locking said two locking members. 
     
     
         4 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein each of said two holding members of said locking assembly further comprises a reset member which is elastically disposed thereon and coupled with said locking member, such that each of said two locking members is retained by said reset member and outward movement of said locking member is blocked, wherein when said two installation arms are respectively moved in said slots, said locking members move with displacements of said two installation arms to allow said two installation arms to enter said slots respectively, and that after said two installation arms are respectively disposed in said two slots, said two locking members move back to initial positions thereof while further movement is blocked by said two reset members. 
     
     
         5 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 1 , further comprising two stoppers mounted on said two installation arms respectively to prevent a subsequent shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers to retract when a standby shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers has been dispensed from said two installation arms. 
     
     
         6 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein each of said two stoppers comprises a plurality of stopper claws. 
     
     
         7 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein each of said two stoppers comprises a stopper head body and a plurality of stopper protrusions extended from said stopper head body. 
     
     
         8 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 4 , further comprising two stoppers mounted on said two installation arms respectively to prevent a subsequent shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers to retract when a standby shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers has been dispensed from said two installation arms. 
     
     
         9 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 8 , wherein each of said two stoppers comprises a plurality of stopper claws. 
     
     
         10 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 8 , wherein each of said two stoppers comprises a stopper head body and a plurality of stopper protrusions extended from said stopper head body. 
     
     
         11 . A shoe cover dispenser device for dispensing a plurality of shoe covers, comprising:
 a frame;   an installation assembly installed on said frame, wherein said installation assembly comprises two installation arms for installing the plurality of shoe covers, wherein each of the said installation arms has a first end portion; and   a locking assembly, installed on the frame and locking said two installation arms of said installation assembly, comprising a first locking member which is arranged at said first end portion of each of said two installation arms and comprises two holding members each having a slot for receiving said first end portion of each of said two installation arms, and a locking element that is movable for locking said first end portion of each of said two installation arms in said slot.   
     
     
         12 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 11 , wherein each of said two installation arms further comprises a second end portion, wherein said locking assembly further comprises a second locking member arranged to detachably lock said second end portion of each of said two installation arms. 
     
     
         13 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 11 , further comprising two stoppers mounted on said two installation arms to prevent a subsequent shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers to retract when a standby shoe cover of the plurality of shoe covers has been dispensed from said two installation arms. 
     
     
         14 . The shoe cover dispenser device, as recited in  claim 13 , wherein each of said two stoppers comprises an arc-shaped arm. 
     
     
         15 .
