The invention discloses clothes drying equipment and a clothes aridity and humidity distinguishing method and device for the clothes drying equipment. The clothes aridity and humidity distinguishing method for the clothes drying equipment comprises the following steps: obtaining a corresponding standard temperature change curve according to materials of clothes to be dried; detecting the surface temperature of the clothes to be dried in a drying process in real time; carrying out data processing on the surface temperature of the clothes to be dried to generate a temperature change curve; and matching the temperature change curve with the standard temperature change curve to distinguish the aridity and humidity of the clothes to be dried. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the surface temperature of the clothes to be dried in the drying process is detected, and the temperature change curve is generated according to the surface temperature, so that the aridity and humidity of the clothes to be dried can be accurately distinguished, and a condition that the clothes are not completely dried or are excessively dried is avoided.
