1. Dosing apparatus for dosing bulk material into block forming elements and for arranging on a filling car of a filling apparatus of a block-making machine for producing patterned blocks, wherein the filling car is pushed back and forth in a displacement direction (V) via block forming elements and a first bulk material component is filled into the block forming elements with the latter, the dosing apparatus comprising: at least one filling box, wherein the filling box has a lower outlet that is opened and closed by means of a closure, wherein a second bulk material component is filled from the filling box into the block forming elements through the lower outlet, characterized in that the outlet in its open state is still closed in partial areas in a direction (Q) transverse to the displacement direction (V) with the aid of a partial closure element, wherein the partial closure element is designed as part of the closure and the partial closure element is replaceable, so that the second bulk material component is filled into the block forming elements in segments, and the second bulk material component that emerges in segments is moved back and forth in a transverse direction (Q) transverse to the displacement direction (V) and relative to the block forming elements with the aid of a drive unit arranged on the dosing apparatus, whereby the dosing apparatus has at least one frame apparatus arranged on at least one side of the filling box to which the filling box is fastened in a suspended manner at the filling box's upper corners with at least one lever respectively, wherein the lever is rotatably fastened at one end to a support element of the frame apparatus and at its other end, the lever is rotatably fastened to the filling box, and with the aid of the drive unit, a pendulum movement of the filling box is induced relative to the frame apparatus.
