A laser distance finder including a laser generating device, a collimating
lens positioned in an emitting end direction of the laser generating
device, a receiving lens for receiving a reflected measuring beam from an
object to be measured and focusing it into an image, an optoelectronic
detector disposed in the distance finder, a reflective member rotatably
mounted on an optical path of the collimating measuring beam via a
rotating shaft and being capable of rotating to a first position and a
second position around the rotating shaft, which is connected to an
output shaft of a motor. The laser distance finder further includes a
spring, and the reflective member that rotates to a desired position
rapidly and exactly by utilizing various deformation status of the
spring, thus saving power.
