Abstract: A work machine rental management device, a work machine rental management method, and a work machine rental program that can appropriately determine a rental cost of a work machine. A controller of a rental management device acquires a total operating time and a maintenance record of a work machine during a rental period, a cumulative operating time of the work machine at the start of the rental period, and maintenance management information including a content of maintenance required for the work machine and a cost required for the maintenance from a ROM. The controller determines a maintenance cost required for the maintenance required during the rental period based on the total operating time, the cumulative operating time, and the maintenance management information, and determines the rental cost during the rental period based on the determined maintenance cost, the total operating time, and the maintenance record.

Abstract: A control device of a general-purpose engine which can continue operation of a working machine even when an operation management unit of the working machine has failed. The control device includes an engine control unit that controls the general-purpose engine based on a command from the operation management unit managing an operating state of the working machine, a communication interface for communicating with an external device; a management program acquisition unit that acquires a management program that is used by the operation management unit to manage the operating state, from the external device through the communication interface and stores the acquired management program in a storage medium, and an operation management substitute unit that manages the operating state of the working machine in place of the operation management unit in accordance with the management program when a failure of operation management unit is detected.

Abstract: A startup assistance device, which assists startup of an internal combustion engine in which fuel is supplied from an electronically controlled fuel injection device and ignition is performed by an ignition device, includes a recoil starter which is driven by manpower and which performs cranking for starting up the internal combustion engine, an electric rotary machine which adds torque to a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine during at least one of a startup period of the internal combustion engine using the recoil starter and a standby period before the startup period, a power source unit which supplies power to the electric rotary machine, and a control unit which controls the magnitude and time of the torque output by the electric rotary machine.
