[Modes for carrying out the invention] 【0010】 In each drawing, the dimensions of components may be enlarged or reduced from their actual dimensions for the sake of clarity, and the dimensional ratios between drawings may not be consistent. Furthermore, in each drawing, some components may be omitted for the sake of clarity. 【0011】 Terms including ordinal numbers such as "1st," "2nd," etc., are used to describe various components, but these terms are used solely for the purpose of distinguishing one component from others, and the components are not particularly limited by these terms. Furthermore, the number of components including ordinal numbers is not particularly limited; for example, there may be only one. Also, the ordinal numbers used in the following specification and drawings may differ from the ordinal numbers described in the claims. 【0012】 Hereinafter, an embodiment of an elevator design support system, a server device, and a program will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 17. The following embodiments are examples for assisting in understanding the configurations of the elevator design support system, the server device, and the program, and do not limit the configurations of the elevator design support system, the server device, and the program. 【0013】 As shown in FIG. 1, an elevator design support system (hereinafter, also simply referred to as "design support system") 1 may include a server device 2, a terminal device 3, an input device 4, and an output device 5. And each of the devices 2 to 5 may be capable of communicating with each other by a communication means 6. The communication means 6 may be, for example, a wireless communication means such as the Internet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or a wireless LAN, or may be a wired communication means such as a wired LAN or a communication cable. 【0014】 The terminal device 3 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a personal computer, a tablet computer, etc. The input device 4 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a mouse, a keyboard, a controller, etc. The output device 5 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, a VR display, a projector, a monitor, etc. 【0015】 The design support system 1 may include, for example, as in this embodiment, an input unit 7 into which data (information) is input, an acquisition unit 8 that acquires data, a storage unit 9 that stores data, a processing unit 10 that processes data, an output unit 11 that outputs data, and a display unit 12 that displays data. 【0016】 The server device 2 is not particularly limited, but may, for example, include an acquisition unit 8, a storage unit 9, and a processing unit 10, as in this embodiment. The terminal device 3 is not particularly limited, but may, for example, include an input unit 7, an acquisition unit 8, a storage unit 9, a processing unit 10, an output unit 11, and a display unit 12, as in this embodiment. The input device 4 is not particularly limited, but may, for example, include an input unit 7, as in this embodiment. The output device 5 is not particularly limited, but may, for example, include a display unit 12, as in this embodiment. 【0017】 The server device 2 and terminal device 3 are also referred to as processing units 2 and 3, which include a processing unit 10. As shown in Figure 2, processing units 2 and 3 are computers that include, for example, a processor 13, memory 14, and various interfaces 15. For example, the memory 14 stores a program 14a and a database 14b, the processor 13 executes the program 14a, and the various parts of processing units 2 and 3 are realized through the cooperation of software and hardware. 【0018】 The processor 13 is configured to execute computer executable instructions. The processor 13 is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, a central processing unit (CPU), a microprocessor (MPU), etc. 【0019】 Memory 14 is configured to store computer data. Memory 14 includes not only memory for temporarily storing data when the processor 13 performs processing, but also storage for permanently storing data. Memory 14 is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, semiconductor memory (various ROMs, various RAMs, etc.), optical discs (CDs, DVDs, etc.), magnetic discs (hard disks, MOs, etc.), magnetic tape, or storage media using fresh memory (SD cards, USB memory, etc.). 【0020】 As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the design support system 1 may consist of multiple devices 2 to 5 that can communicate with each other, as in this embodiment, or it may consist of a single device (for example, only terminal device 3). Specifically, the storage unit 9 and the processing unit 10 of the design support system 1 may be distributed among multiple devices 2 and 3 that can communicate with each other, as in this embodiment, or they may be provided in a single device (for example, only terminal device 3). 【0021】 As a result, the processing unit 10 of the design support system 1 may be configured such that, for example, as in this embodiment, it is implemented by having processors 13 (i.e., multiple processors 13) in computers of multiple devices (e.g., server device 2 and terminal device 3) distribute the processing, or it may be configured such that, for example, it is implemented by having a processor 13 (i.e., one processor 13) in a computer of a single device (e.g., terminal device 3) perform the processing. 【0022】 The design support system 1's processing unit 10 may be configured to consist of a server device 2 and a terminal device 3. For example, when data is input to the input unit 7 of the terminal device 3, the processing unit 10 of the server device 2 sends the necessary data (for example, a part of program 14a) to the terminal device 3 as needed, the storage unit 9 of the terminal device 3 temporarily stores the data, and then when data is input to the input unit 7 of the terminal device 3, the processing unit 10 of the terminal device 3 processes the data, and the display unit 12 of the terminal device 3 displays the data. 【0023】 Alternatively, the design support system 1's processing unit 10 may consist of a server device 2 and a terminal device 3. For example, each time data is input to the input unit 7 of the terminal device 3, the processing unit 10 of the server device 2 sends the data to the terminal device 3, the processing unit 10 of the terminal device 3 performs the necessary processing on the data, and the display unit 12 of the terminal device 3 displays the data. 【0024】 Alternatively, the design support system 1's processing unit 10 may consist only of the terminal device 3. For example, the server device 2 transmits all necessary data to the terminal device 3, so that the storage unit 9 of the terminal device 3 stores (downloads) all the necessary data. Then, when the data is input to the input unit 7 of the terminal device 3, the processing unit 10 of the terminal device 3 processes the data, and the display unit 12 of the terminal device 3 displays the data. 【0025】 As shown in Figure 3, the processing unit 10 may include, for example, a calculation unit 10a that performs calculations on data and a control unit 10b that controls each part of the design support system 1. The calculation unit 10a may include, for example, a data creation unit 10c that creates data, as in this embodiment. The control unit 10b may include, for example, a display control unit 10d that controls the display unit 12, as in this embodiment. 【0026】 The storage unit 9 may store data such as elevator specifications. The display control unit 10d may be configured to display the basic selection unit 16, display selection unit 17, specification selection unit 18, and image display unit 19 on the display unit 12, as shown in Figures 4 and 5. The acquisition unit 8 may acquire the data selected by each selection unit 16, 17, and 18, for example. 【0027】 The data creation unit 10c may, for example, create simulation data of the car and landing in three-dimensional space based on the data selected by each selection unit 16, 17, 18 and acquired by the acquisition unit 8, and the data stored in the storage unit 9. Although not particularly limited, the data creation unit 10c may, for example, create simulation data of the car and landing in three-dimensional space by synthesizing multiple component data. 【0028】 The display control unit 10d may then cause the image display unit 19 to display at least one of the elevator car simulation image and the landing simulation image based on the simulation data created by the data creation unit 10c. The elevator car simulation image is an image based on the elevator car simulation data created by the data creation unit 10c, and the landing simulation image is an image based on the landing simulation created by the data creation unit 10c. 【0029】 Furthermore, the image display unit 19 may, for example, display only one simulation image (a car simulation image (see Figure 4) or a landing simulation image (see Figure 5)) as in this embodiment, or it may display multiple simulation images (for example, both a car simulation image and a landing simulation image) simultaneously. 【0030】 Each selection unit 16, 17, 18 may have, for example, a display function to display the type of data to be input and an input function to input data when operated, as in this embodiment, and is not particularly limited, but may be a graphical user interface (GUI), for example. Furthermore, it may be configured such that, for example, data is selected by each selection unit 16, 17, 18 using an input unit 7 such as a mouse or touch panel, thereby inputting instruction data, and the acquisition unit 8 acquires the instruction data. 【0031】 The basic selection unit 16 is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may include a car type selection unit 16a that allows selection of elevator uses such as residential, passenger, bed, and observation elevators, a capacity selection unit 16b that allows selection of the passenger capacity of the car, and a passenger simulation selection unit 16c that allows selection of passenger simulation (simulating the passenger situation of people, goods, etc.). 【0032】 Furthermore, the basic selection unit 16 is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may also be possible to select "View Specifications" (e.g., viewing the current elevator specifications), "Print" (printing the current elevator specifications), "Save" (saving the current elevator specifications), "Settings" (whether or not to include sound, etc.). 【0033】 Furthermore, when the elevator car simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 4) and when the landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 5), the items that can be selected on the basic selection unit 16 may be the same, as in this embodiment, or they may be different. 【0034】 The display selection unit 17 is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may include a display location selection unit 17a that allows selection of an image to be displayed on the image display unit 19, and a landing addition selection unit 17b that allows selection of adding a landing. For example, if "car" is selected in the display location selection unit 17a, a car simulation image may be displayed on the image display unit 19, and for example, if "landing" is selected in the display selection unit 17a, a landing simulation image may be displayed on the image display unit 19. 【0035】 Furthermore, the display selection unit 17 is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may also be possible to select "display angle" and "angle operation". "Display angle" refers to, for example, the angle (default angle) of the simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19, and "angle operation" refers to, for example, the method of operation when changing the angle of the simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19 using the input unit 7. 【0036】 Furthermore, when the elevator car simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 4) and when the landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 5), the items that can be selected on the display selection unit 17 may be different, as in this embodiment, or they may be the same. 【0037】 The specification selection unit 18 may include, for example, a car specification selection unit 18x that is displayed on the display unit 12 when a car simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 4), as in this embodiment, and a landing specification selection unit 18y that is displayed on the display unit 12 when a landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 5). 【0038】 The elevator car specification selection unit 18x may, for example, include a first security window specification selection unit 18a that can select a security window specification having a security window, a stop floor selection unit 18b that can select the number of stop floors, a button selection unit 18c that can select buttons on the control panel, a first wheelchair specification selection unit 18d that can select a wheelchair specification (that it is a wheelchair specification), and a sub-control panel specification selection unit 18e that can select a sub-control panel specification having a sub-control panel. 【0039】 Furthermore, the cage specification selection section 18x is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may also be possible to select "color" (color of cage side walls, cage door, cage floor, etc.), "ceiling" (type of cage ceiling, etc.), "entrance type" (entrance height, etc.), "door direction" (direction of door opening, etc.). 【0040】 The landing specification selection unit 18y may include, for example, a second security window specification selection unit 18f that allows selection of a security window specification having a security window, and a second wheelchair specification selection unit 18g that allows selection of a wheelchair specification (that it is a wheelchair specification), as in this embodiment. 【0041】 Furthermore, the landing specification selection section 18y is not particularly limited, but for example, as in this embodiment, it may also be possible to select "three-sided frame" (type of three-sided frame), "color" (color of landing door, three-sided frame, etc.), "building" (type of building walls and floors, etc.), "door direction" (direction of door opening, etc.), "entrance / exit type" (entrance / exit height, etc.), "display (type of buttons on landing control panel, type of LCD monitor, etc.)", etc. 【0042】 Thus, the specification selection unit 18 is configured to allow selection from multiple candidates for multiple elevator specifications. In this embodiment, the car specification selection unit 18x is configured to allow selection of car specifications, and the landing specification selection unit 18y is configured to allow selection of landing specifications. However, for example, the car specification selection unit 18x and the landing specification selection unit 18y may be configured to allow selection of the same selection items, that is, to allow selection of both car and landing specifications. 【0043】 Next, an example of an elevator design support method according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 6 to 17. Note that the elevator design support method is not limited to the following method. Also, although not particularly limited, in Figures 6, 10, 13, 14, and 16, the selection method in selection units 16, 17, and 18 is illustrated using a mouse pointer (indicated by an arrow). 【0044】 As shown in Figure 6(a), by selecting to add a landing in the landing addition selection unit 17b, for example, a second landing on another floor may be added to the first landing on the base floor. Then, the data creation unit 10c (see Figure 3) creates simulation data for the three-dimensional space of the elevator car, the first landing, and the second landing, for example. 【0045】 Furthermore, if a second landing is added, the landing addition selection unit 17b may be deleted, for example, as shown in Figure 6(b). The display location selection unit 17a may also be configured to allow selection of the image to be displayed on the image display unit 19 from "car," "first landing (standard floor landing)," and "second landing (other floor landing)," for example, as shown in Figure 6(b). 【0046】 As a result, when "car" is selected in the display location selection unit 17a, a car simulation image is displayed in the image display unit 19 as shown in Figure 7; when "first landing" is selected in the display selection unit 17a, a first landing simulation image is displayed in the image display unit 19 as shown in Figure 8; and when "second landing" is selected in the display selection unit 17a, a second landing simulation image is displayed in the image display unit 19 as shown in Figure 9. 【0047】 The first landing simulation image is based on the simulation of the first landing created by the data creation unit 10c, and the second landing simulation image is based on the simulation of the second landing created by the data creation unit 10c. In addition, the simulation images in Figures 7 to 9 are based on simulations of elevators that are not wheelchair accessible. 【0048】 While not particularly limited, as shown in Figure 8, the first landing may be, for example, the landing on the lowest floor and may have only one button (a call button for the ascending car) on the landing control panel, and as shown in Figure 9, the second landing may be, for example, a landing other than the lowest and highest floors and may have two buttons (a call button for the ascending car and a call button for the descending car) on the landing control panel. Also, while not particularly limited, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, the specifications of the doors and three-sided frames and the specifications of the building walls and floors may differ between the first and second landings. 【0049】 When a car simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figures 4 and 7), for example, as shown in Figure 10, the wheelchair specification may be selected in the first wheelchair specification selection unit 18d of the car specification selection unit 18x. As a result, the data creation unit 10c (see Figure 3) creates all simulation data for the wheelchair specification, not only for the car whose simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, but also for all other first and second landings. 【0050】 Therefore, the cage simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19 will be an image equipped with wheelchair-accessible components, as shown in Figures 11 and 12. In Figure 11, which is a front-angle image, the wheelchair-accessible components are the first sub-control panel and the first handrail shown within the dashed area, and in Figure 12, which is a rear-angle image, the wheelchair-accessible components are the second sub-control panel, the second handrail, and the rear mirror shown within the dashed area. 【0051】 For example, when "First Platform" is selected in the display location selection unit 17a (see Figures 4 to 6), the simulation image of the first platform displayed in the image display unit 19 becomes an image equipped with wheelchair-accessible components, as shown in Figure 13. In Figure 13, the wheelchair-accessible components are the wheelchair control panel shown within the dashed area. 【0052】 Furthermore, for example, when "Second Landing" is selected in the display location selection unit 17a (see Figures 4 to 6), the second landing simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19 will be an image equipped with wheelchair-accessible components, as shown in Figure 14. In Figure 14, the wheelchair-accessible components are the wheelchair control panel shown within the dashed area. 【0053】 In this way, the data creation unit 10c creates simulation data for wheelchair accessibility not only for the elevator car whose simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, but also for all the first and second landings, for which no simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19. This makes it easy to simulate a wheelchair-accessible elevator. Moreover, it prevents forgetting to make the first and second landings wheelchair accessible when, for example, the elevator car is selected to be wheelchair accessible. 【0054】 Furthermore, when the first landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figures 5 and 8), for example, the wheelchair specification may be selected in the second wheelchair specification selection unit 18g of the landing specification selection unit 18y (see Figure 5). As a result, the data creation unit 10c creates simulation data for wheelchair specifications not only for the first landing where the simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, but also for all elevators and the second landing where the simulation image is not displayed on the image display unit 19. 【0055】 Therefore, each simulation image displayed based on the simulation data will be an image equipped with wheelchair-accessible components, as shown in Figures 11 to 14. This makes it easy to simulate a wheelchair-accessible elevator. Moreover, it prevents forgetting to make the car and second landing wheelchair-accessible as well, for example, when it is selected to make the first landing wheelchair-accessible. 【0056】 Furthermore, when the second landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19 (see Figure 8), for example, the wheelchair specification may be selected in the second wheelchair specification selection unit 18g of the landing specification selection unit 18y. As a result, the data creation unit 10c creates simulation data for wheelchair specifications not only for the second landing where the simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, but also for all elevators where the simulation image is not displayed on the image display unit 19 and for the first landing. 【0057】 Therefore, each simulation image displayed based on the simulation data will be an image equipped with wheelchair-accessible components, as shown in Figures 11 to 14. This makes it easy to simulate a wheelchair-accessible elevator. Moreover, for example, if it is selected to make the second landing wheelchair-accessible, it prevents forgetting to also make the car and the first landing wheelchair-accessible. 【0058】 Furthermore, for example, as shown in Figure 13, when the first landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, the display control unit 10d (see Figure 3) may, for example, display a door opening selection unit 20 on the display unit 12, which allows the user to select whether to open the door. Although not particularly limited, the door opening selection unit 20 may, for example, be displayed as a button on the landing control panel of the first landing simulation image displayed on the image display unit 19, as in this embodiment. 【0059】 Then, as shown in Figure 13, when the door opening selection unit 20 selects to open the door, the first landing simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19 becomes an image (i.e., a video) of the door opening, as shown in Figure 15. At this time, the first landing simulation image becomes an image that displays the wheelchair-accessible components inside the elevator car when the door is opened. 【0060】 This allows us to see the situation that passengers at the first boarding area will experience when the doors are opened, using a simulation image of the first boarding area. In Figure 15, the wheelchair-accessible components inside the elevator car are the first sub-control panel, the first handrail, the second handrail, and the rear mirror, which are shown within the dashed area. 【0061】 Furthermore, for example, as shown in Figure 14, when the second landing simulation image is displayed on the image display unit 19, the display control unit 10d (see Figure 3) may, for example, display a door opening selection unit 20 on the display unit 12, which allows the user to select whether to open the door. Although not particularly limited, the door opening selection unit 20 may, for example, be displayed as a button on the landing control panel of the second landing simulation image displayed on the image display unit 19, as in this embodiment. 【0062】 As shown in Figure 14, when the door opening selection unit 20 selects to open the door, the second landing simulation image displayed on the image display unit 19 (not shown) becomes an image of the door opening (i.e., a video). At this time, the second landing simulation image displays the wheelchair-accessible components inside the elevator car when the door is opened. This allows the passengers at the second landing to see the situation they will experience when the door is opened through the second landing simulation image. 【0063】 Furthermore, for example, as shown in Figure 16, when the security window specification is selected in the second security window specification selection unit 18f of the landing specification selection unit 18y, the first landing simulation image displayed in the image display unit 19 will be an image with a security window, as shown in Figure 17. In this case, the landing simulation image will be an image that shows the wheelchair-accessible components inside the elevator car through the security window. 【0064】 This allows us to confirm the situation that passengers at the boarding area perceive through the security window using the first boarding area simulation image. In Figure 17, the wheelchair-accessible components inside the elevator car are the first sub-control panel, the first handrail, and the rear mirror, which are shown within the dashed line area. 【0065】 For example, as in this embodiment, when the second security window specification selection unit 18f selects the security window specification, the data creation unit 10c may create the car door and the landing doors of at least the landings shown in the landing simulation on the image display unit 19 with the security window specification. Alternatively, for example, when the second security window specification selection unit 18f selects the security window specification, the data creation unit 10c may create the car door and the landing doors of all landings with the security window specification. 【0066】 Alternatively, for example, if the first security window specification selection unit 18a selects a security window specification, the data creation unit 10c may create the car door and the landing doors of at least one landing with the security window specification. Alternatively, for example, if the first security window specification selection unit 18a selects a security window specification, the data creation unit 10c may create the car door and the landing doors of all landings with the security window specification. 【0067】 For example, if the security window specification is selected in the first security window specification selection section 18a of the car specification selection section 18x, the data creation section 10c may create only the car door with the security window specification, while if the security window specification is selected in the second security window specification selection section 18f of the landing specification selection section 18y, the data creation section 10c may create only the landing door of the landing simulation displayed on the image display section 19 with the security window specification. 【0068】 [1] As described above, the elevator design support system 1, as in this embodiment, comprises a display unit 12 for displaying data, and a processing unit 10 that causes the display unit 12 to display a specification selection unit 18 that allows the selection of multiple elevator specifications from multiple candidates, the processing unit 10 creates simulation data in three-dimensional space for the car and the first landing based on the data selected by the specification selection unit 18, and the processing unit 10 causes the display unit 12 to display at least one of the car simulation image and the first landing simulation image based on the created simulation data, wherein the specification selection unit 18 comprises wheelchair specification selection units 18d and 18g that allow the selection of wheelchair specifications, and the processing unit 10 creates simulation data for both the car and the first landing in wheelchair specifications when a wheelchair specification is selected by the wheelchair specification selection units 18d and 18g. 【0069】 With this configuration, when the wheelchair specification is selected in the wheelchair specification selection units 18d and 18g, the simulation data for both the elevator car and the first landing is created in wheelchair specification. This makes it possible to easily simulate a wheelchair-accessible elevator. 【0070】 [2] Furthermore, in the elevator design support system 1 described in [1] above, as in this embodiment, the processing unit 10 displays only one of the car simulation image or the first landing simulation image on the display unit 12, and the specification selection unit 18 includes a car specification selection unit 18x that is displayed on the display unit 12 and allows the selection of car specifications when the car simulation image is displayed on the display unit 12, and a landing specification selection unit 18x that is displayed on the display unit 12 and allows the selection of landing specifications when the first landing simulation image is displayed on the display unit 12.
